Neal Martin - Vinous
The 2020 Saint-Véran En Creche comes from a 0.33-hectare plot that Merlin describes as precocious due to its exposure that sees a lot of sunlight during the day, therefore it is picked earlier than others. It has a well-defined bouquet with light flinty aromas, a touch of red apple and pressed flower. The palate is well balanced and very harmonious, fine tension thanks to the acidity with a welcome twist of sour lemon on the finish. Very fine.
