Viré-Clessé La Verchère 2019

- 90 points -

The 2019 Viré-Clessé Climat "La Verchère", which comes from a late-ripening east-facing parcel and is aged entirely in used barrel plus one demi-muid, expresses the terroirs supremely well on the nose with crushed rock scents combining beautifully with subtle honeysuckle and dandelion scents. The palate is well balanced with a tangy, orange rind and white peach entry, just a light spicy note defining the mid-palate with a simple yet effective saline finish. This is worth seeking out.
