The vines are planted on clay-limestone soils with a strong limestone component, giving the wine a naturally mineral and energetic character. Fruit is harvested by hand, while the estate’s vineyards are farmed organically, with the 2023 release carrying certified organic status. The wine combines the generosity of southern Burgundy Chardonnay with the freshness and definition associated with Saint-Véran. Its aromatic profile brings together grapefruit, green apple, candied lemon and subtle waxy complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the 2023 release, the wine was fermented and matured in oak casks before a further period in stainless steel, building texture while maintaining freshness and precision. The palate is concentrated yet polished, with ripe citrus and orchard fruit carried by fine acidity and a clear mineral line. Anise and fennel nuances add savoury complexity as the wine develops across the palate. Despite its richness, the structure remains poised rather than heavy, with the limestone soils contributing freshness and tension. The finish is particularly long, crisp and stony, giving the wine a refined and persistent conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Bright, complex and citrus-driven\u003cbr\u003eGrapefruit, green apple and candied lemon with delicate white floral, beeswax and mineral nuances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Concentrated, silky and finely balanced\u003cbr\u003eRipe citrus and orchard fruit are framed by polished texture, fine acidity and subtle anise and fennel complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Long, crisp and stony\u003cbr\u003ePersistent citrus, savoury herbal notes and limestone minerality carry through a precise, refreshing finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e“A suave and sophisticated wine for this appellation, with excellent concentration and a wonderful silkiness on the medium-bodied palate. Intense anise and fennel flavors at the very long, crisp and stony finish. From vines planted in 1956 and 2009 in 10 parcels on stony limestone soil. From organically grown grapes. Fermented and matured for a year in oak casks, then for another seven months in stainless steel. Drink or hold.”\u003c\/em\u003e — James Suckling, 94 Points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrand - Famille Paquet\u003cbr\u003eStyle - White Wine\u003cbr\u003eVarietal - Chardonnay\u003cbr\u003eCountry - France\u003cbr\u003eRegion - Burgundy\u003cbr\u003eAppellation - Saint-Véran\u003cbr\u003eVintage - 2023\u003cbr\u003eABV - 12.5%\u003cbr\u003eSize - 750ml\u003cbr\u003eCertification - Organic\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Famille Paquet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44614056345687,"sku":"FAM-PAQ-ST-VERAN-99C-23","price":89.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/bba7abb3-030e-44e7-a59d-9cea4eb26cf5.webp?v=1793847291","url":"https:\/\/kentstreetcellars.com.au\/products\/domaine-famille-paquet-saint-veran-les-99-coupes-2023","provider":"Kent Street Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
