- TASTING NOTE: "Ooh yes. Floral and sunny, with plenty of ripe orchard fruits and citrus over a touch of creamy, nuttiness. This has great flow and concentration and feels very expensive. Good mineral presence and acid drive." David Gillman HWS
- ABOUT THE WINE: A blend from two parcels: the first on marl in the commune of Davayé and the second on hard limestone on the slopes of the Roche de Vergisson. The wine, made from vines with an average age of 15 years, is vinified half in tanks and half in barrels.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Located in the heart of the Mâconnais region, the Saumaize-Michelin estate produces white Burgundies from the best terroirs of the of the region. Roger Saumaize and his wife Christine run the estate with their son Vivien and daughter Lisa. First established in 1977 and starting with a 3.5-hectare sharecropping agreement they have since added desirable parcels in Saint-Veran and Pouilly-Fuisse and have been using biodynamic principals in their vineyards since 2005. The estate now encompasses 11 hectares with the family striving to always do better, constantly questioning itself in light of climate change and its viticultural and winemaking practices, always with the aim of working with living soils, the vine in symbiosis with the earth offers us grapes nourished by the terroir, resulting in unique wines.
