DOMAINE JEAN FERY Santenay 'Perrieres des Croix' Blanc 2023 Bottle

Description

The Domaine Jean Féry et Fils, a family-run estate based in Échevronne, manages thirty-three hectares across Burgundy, producing a diverse range of appellations with organic practices. Their Santenay 'Perrières des Croix' Blanc is crafted from 100% Chardonnay, sourced from meticulously maintained limestone-rich vineyards that impart distinct minerality. The winemaking process emphasises purity, typically involving careful pressing followed by fermentation and ageing in French oak barrels to build texture while preserving the variety's intrinsic elegance. On the palate, this 2023 vintage displays bright orchard fruit and refreshing citrus notes, beautifully balanced by a creamy mouthfeel and vibrant, race-like acidity, finishing with a lingering, sapid stoniness.
