Intensity
Viré-Clessé Perrières comes from a parcel around half a hectare in size. This wine is élevaged for 10 months in barrels then for 6 months in vats. On the nose, it expresses aromas of apricots and peaches. On the palate, it is beautifully lush, well-rounded, extremely finely balanced with a slight mineral quality and very long-lasting aromas.
