Concours Paris

(Notes from the 2017 vintage)

In the glass, this Saint-Véran with its beautiful intense yellow color seduces with its elegant and airy nose, enveloped in notes of white flowers and a hint of smoke. Aromas of yellow fruit and toast intermingle, revealing the full character of this delicate white wine. The attack is voluminous, with yellow fruit coming through clearly.

Rated estate (2019 guide) 2 stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more consistent and uniform than the previous one)

About the estate:

This estate, located in the heart of Davayé's finest terroirs, is owned by the Mâcon Davayé wine school. It has been courageously run as an organic farm for several years, with no less than 16 hectares, mainly in the Saint-Véran appellation. The winemaking approach here has a significant impact on the style of the wines, with very stripped-down juices undergoing prolonged fermentation at low temperatures. The result is a modern and seductive profile. It is worth noting that there is a rare and more original production of reds that we were unable to taste, and, as an anecdote, some highly esteemed goat's cheeses!

Guide Hachette des vins

Rated estate (2021 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines are regularly recognized by the guide)

About the estate:

The Mâcon-Davayé wine school has been training winemakers from Burgundy and elsewhere for many generations. The adjoining estate (16 hectares) is organically farmed, and Frédéric Servais, the cellar master, aims to produce wines that are as "natural" as possible.
