"This Saint-Romain sublimates the Chardonnay in this surprising cuvée, a wonderful discovery!"

Expressive and complex, this white Saint-Romain from Domaine Nicolas Fèvre opens with enveloping scents of vanilla bean, acacia flower and yellow lemon zest, complemented by a refreshing hint of minerality. Full-bodied and velvety on the palate, this cuvée is airy and chiseled, with flavors of citrus zest, stone fruit and vanilla brioche on a finish that lingers with amplitude and suppleness. A perfect accompaniment to pan-fried scallops, or a magnificent sole meunière.

About the wine:

Be warned, there won't be enough of this highly confidential cuvée for everyone. And that's a shame, because everything about it is remarkably harmonious. We love its elegant golden color with straw reflections, its complex nose, finely vanilla, floral, mineral and lemony, its ample, fresh, dynamic mouth, under tension, but also with a hint of fatness that rounds out the angles. Serve with a fine fish, such as monkfish with saffron.

About the domain :

While Nicolas Fèvre's main activity is wine consulting, in 2014 he created his own small estate by taking over part of the family's vines, which had previously been farmed out, in Saint-Romain, Auxey-Duresses and Bourgogne-Aligoté.
