✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the stony, fossil-rich soils of Fleys—a historic winemaking commune nestled on the right bank of the Serein river in Chablis—Verget's 'Terroir Fleys' is a masterclass in pure, mineral-driven Chardonnay. Jean-Marie Guffens, the iconoclastic force behind Maison Verget, selected this specific terroir for its classic Kimmeridgian limestone, packed with prehistoric oyster shells that impart a signature saline tension to the wine. True to Verget's philosophy of minimal intervention and terroir preservation, the grapes are gently pressed and fermented primarily in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. This avoids the mask of heavy oak, allowing the natural, laser-sharp acidity, flinty wet-stone aromatics, and crisp green apple flavors of the Fleys terroir to shine brilliantly. It is a vibrant, energetic expression of Chablis that honors the ancient maritime heritage of the region.
🍾 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.
