2019 Saint-Véran, Héritiers du Comte Lafon

2019 Saint-Véran, Héritiers du Comte Lafon

This always striked the fine balance between richness and finesse. Volumes in 2019 are severely reduced due to the spring frost, with one parcel of the two being entirely wiped out. But what remains has superb concentration, with smoky lime aromas and a firm, long, mineral finish.

Tasting notes

A blend of several vineyards, the 2019 Saint-Véran has a straightforward, citrus-scented bouquet with cooking apple scents coming through. The palate is well balanced, rounded in texture and a little peachy, conveying the southerly exposure and ripeness of the growing season. Very drinkable already.
