Saint Veran, an appellation in the southern Maconnais, consists of two small islands of land separated by Pouilly Fuisse. If you like Pouilly Fuisse, you will probably like Saint Veran as well, especially if you note that the price is substantially lower. This Saint Veran La Cour des Bois is particularly Pouilly-Fuisse-like.
Medium deep straw color. Exciting smells and flavors, very fresh but with surprising depth. Broad flavors: lemon, apricot, yellow flowers, hazelnuts, buttered toast. Some leesy qualities but not enough to be obvious. Drinking beautifully right now, but I suspect it might get even better in a couple of years.
