St Peray, 2021
justerini & brooks tasting note
A St Peray of contour and edge, produced from 50% Marsanne and 50% Roussanne fermented in stainless steel and aged, in the case of the 2021, for 9 months in used demi-muids. Citrus oils, fresh apricot and a sharp lemon and brittle herb twang give a complex reverberating feel to the 2021, buttressed by deft nutty, toasted notes from the barrels. From a south south-west facing plot at 300m elevation on sandy soils.
