✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Verget's 'Grands Terroirs' is a masterful expression of white Burgundy, crafted under the visionary guidance of Jean-Marie Guffens. Sourced from select, limestone-rich parcels across the Mâconnais, this 100% Chardonnay cuvée is designed to showcase the diverse micro-terroirs of the region. Guffens, famous for challenging Burgundy's traditional hierarchies, applies the same rigorous standards to this wine as he does to his prestigious single-vineyard bottlings. The grapes undergo gentle pneumatic pressing, followed by fermentation and aging primarily in temperature-controlled stainless steel and concrete vats to preserve the pristine fruit character and vibrant acidity. The result is a beautifully textured white wine defined by notes of crisp green apple, citrus blossom, and a signature chalky, mineral-driven finish that punches far above its regional classification.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Maison Verget blev grundlagt i 1990 af den visionære belgiske vinmager Jean-Marie Guffens og hans hustru Maine Heynen i Sologny, beliggende i Mâconnais i det sydlige Bourgogne. Som en banebrydende négociant-éleveur revolutionerede huset vinproduktionen i Bourgogne med sine kompromisløse standarder for drueudvælgelse, skånsom horisontal presning samt præcis lagring på det fine bundfald med minimal brug af nyt egetræ. Verget er verdenskendt for sine rene, mineralske Chardonnay-vine fra førsteklasses terroirs i alt fra Mâconnais til Chablis og Côte d'Or, men mestrer også ekspressive Pinot Noir-vine og nytænkende fortolkninger fra det sydlige Frankrig. Vinene hyldes for deres nerve, krystalklare renhed og autentiske terroirpræg.
