Genetie La Rencontre
Chardonnay
3430560012989
Will be a perfect accompaniment to pan seared scallops, crab, vichyssoise (a leek and potato based soup), and dishes with a cream and lemon based sauce.
Classic chardonnay from the area offering some lovely fresh citrus notes of lemon peel, floral notes with interesting exotic undertones. Finesse and purity meet and fuse.
St Veran is an appellation that shares many similarities with it’s Obig brother’ Pouilly Fuisse and some of the best sites are situated on the foothills of two Orochers’ that are dominant features of the southern Maconnais country side - La Roche de Solutre and La Roche de Vergisson. Here the granitic sub soil has its word to say and lends an elegant flinty edge to some quite tender Chardonnay. The wine has undergone partial malolcatic fermentation, which gives the wine a subtle creamy texture, weight and presence.
