Saint Véran Lieu (Inter)dit 2024, Verget
£28.95 per bottle
ABV 13.0%
Julian Desplans (wine maker and right-hand man of Jean-Marie Guffens) says that the 2024 Verget wines have both minerality and power. Picked from September 10th to 28th. They are reminiscent of the 2010 and 2014 vintages.
A standout of the range, the 2024 Saint-Véran Lieu (Inter)dit is based on lieu-dit Côte Rôtie along with some fruit from Les Cras this year. Offering up an attractive bouquet of peach, lychee, toasted nuts and reduction, it's medium-bodied, satiny and precise, with good depth and persistence.
