Saint-Romain Sarnin-Berrux 2017

The wine

The Chardonnay grapes used to produce this cuvée originate from the Perrière Combe Bazin climat, where harvesting is manual. They are vinified in old oak barrels and the wine is aged for 10 months, without fining or filtration.
This wine is a complex, fruity and perfectly balanced nectar. Its high-quality structure delivers a long finish and beautiful ageing potential. On the nose, it reveals perfectly structured aromas of peach and fig. On the palate, this fresh, clean white wine offers delightful aromas and a beautiful minerality.
This wine pairs perfectly with aubergine caviar, smoked trout with steamed sauerkraut and soy sauce, grilled leeks with dill or fresh ’oat's cheese.

About the Producer Sarnin-Berrux

Jean-Pascal Sarnin and Jean-Marie Berrux were both eager to discover the diverse expressions and sensibilities of the Burgundy terroir, prompting them to set up the Maison Sarnin-Berrux in Monthélie, in the heart of the iconic Côte de Beaune, in 2007.v Jean-Pascal Sarnin left the world of Parisian finance to acquire a wealth of winegrowing experience by working in the Côte d’Or. This is where he met his counterpart and friend Jean-Marie Berrux. Together, they canvas Burgundy to acquire grapes grown exclusively organically. They are convinced of the benefits such practices have on the vines and the wine, resulting in cuvées that reflect the terroir, while preserving the soil and biodiversity. In the winery, they vinify the fruit as naturally as possible, with minimal intervention, so as to express the diversity of the different Burgundy crus.
