| Review: |
“The 2022 Saint-Véran from Maison Joseph Drouhin is a lovely example of its appellation, and for the first time in more than a decade in the American market, the wine comes sealed under a natural cork this year! The wine is nicely ripe in the style of the vintage, coming in at 13.5 percent octane and offering up a beautifully generous and expressive nose of apple, nectarine, a lovely base of chalky soil tones, just a hint of almond, fruit blossoms and a very gentle framing of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is bright, focused and full-bodied, with a fine core of fruit, excellent soil undertow and grip, zesty acids and impeccable balance on the long and vibrant finish. Texturally, this wine is so much more pleasing now on the palate with its return to a natural closure. Fine juice.” |
