M.Chapoutier Saint Peray Lieu-dit Hongrie 2019 0,75l

M. Chapoutier Saint-Péray Lieu-dit Hongrie is a distinctive white made from pure marsanne grown on limestone and granite slopes near the village of Saint-Péray. Biodynamic farming and hand-harvesting deliver ripe, concentrated grapes. The bouquet shows white peach, pear and yellow apple alongside fennel, anise, honeyed blossom and hints of brioche and toast. On the palate the wine opens with freshness before becoming dense and creamy, supported by discreet oak spice and gentle roasted notes. A long finish with subtle aniseed and saline nuances adds complexity. This refined Saint-Péray is ideal with scallops, noble fish, sauced poultry and flavourful vegetable cuisine.

After fermentation in large oak barrels, the wine ages mainly for 8 months in 600-litre barrels, followed by a short period in concrete tank.
