Clos Sauvage - 'Canopée' Saint Véran 2022

(Burgundy, France)

A wonderful and extra pure expression of Chardonnay from Saint Véran. Aged in old barrels for over a year, this takes on the perfect balance of texture, freshness, complexity, and length. 

Sophie and David of Clos Sauvage have been making wine in a beautiful corner of their region at 450m of altitude on the exact border between Burgundy and Beaujolais since 2018. Their aim from the start has been to create an autonomous farm where vines are grown alongside many other products, where cows and horses roam on adjacent pastures, where bees are kept, and where farmstays are possible.
