Domaine Frantz Chagnoleau Saint-Veran Prelude
Certified Organic, the grapes for this wine come from 50-year-old vines in the heart of Saint-Veran, Burgundy. While full-bodied, the wine remains fresh due to the altitude and cool winds in which the vines grow. The wine is aged in older Burgundy oak barrels to allow the wild yeast and natural minerality to have more influence.
