Domaine Corsin, Saint-Véran Vieilles Vignes, 2018

Domaine Corsin’s Saint-Véran Vieilles Vignes 2018 is a classic white Burgundy that highlights the depth and precision old vines can bring to Chardonnay. Sourced from one of the Mâconnais’ most respected appellations, it offers a refined expression of Saint-Véran with the balance and character that make this region so appealing to lovers of elegant, terroir-driven wines.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this wine typically shows a bright pale gold color with a clean, luminous edge. The nose is expressive yet restrained, with notes of white flowers, ripe pear, citrus peel, and subtle mineral tones, often complemented by light hints of stone fruit and a delicate creamy nuance from careful élevage. On the palate, it is fresh and focused, with a rounded texture that reflects the old vines behind the cuvée. Expect flavors of yellow apple, lemon, white peach, and a chalky, saline finish that adds length and definition. The 2018 vintage has enough structure to age gracefully for several years, while remaining enjoyable in its youth for those who appreciate Burgundy’s combination of richness and precision.

Production
Produced in Saint-Véran in southern Burgundy’s Mâconnais, this wine comes from old vines planted on limestone-rich soils that help give the Chardonnay its mineral drive and finesse. The warm 2018 growing season provided excellent ripeness, while the careful selection of fruit from mature vines contributed concentration and depth. Vinification is typically handled with a restrained Burgundian approach to preserve freshness, purity, and terroir expression.

Food & Serving
This wine is a natural partner for roasted poultry, creamy seafood dishes, grilled fish, shellfish, and soft cheeses such as Comté or goat cheese. Serve it well chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, to show its brightness and aromatic detail. Decanting is generally not necessary, though a brief aeration can help if opening in its youth.
