Description
Discover the exceptional Domaine Corsin Saint-Véran Vieilles Vignes 2020, a premium white wine from the esteemed Burgundy region of France. Crafted from the finest 100% Chardonnay grapes sourced from vines over 65 years old, this vintage is a testament to the art of winemaking. Its dynamic profile emerges from the unique clay-limestone soils of Davayé, offering a distinctive character.
The 2020 vintage, recognized for its perfect growing conditions, showcases:
- A vibrant golden hue that captures the eye.
- Intricate aromas of white flowers, peach, and hazelnut, elevated by hints of fresh almond and cinnamon.
- A rich and creamy texture on the palate with flavors of ripe apricot and a mineral-driven backbone.
- A long, elegant finish of lime zest and Granny Smith apple, complemented by a warm buttery essence.
For the best experience, we recommend:
- Serving chilled between 10-12°C (50-54°F) to accentuate the wine’s refreshing acidity.
- Using large-bowl white wine glasses to enhance aromatic intensity.
- Pairing with grilled scallops in a citrus-herb beurre blanc to elevate the flavors of both the wine and seafood.
- Creating a light starter platter with smoked almonds, fresh green apples, and mild goat cheese to deliver a delightful textural contrast.
- Enjoying at outdoor gatherings with dishes featuring seasonal vegetables, such as white asparagus or fiddlehead ferns dressed lightly with vinaigrette.
- Experimenting with cocktails by mixing with elderflower liqueur and a splash of soda for a refreshing aperitif.
Experience the Domaine Corsin Saint-Véran Vieilles Vignes 2020 and savor a wine that promises a truly exceptional drinking experience while embodying the rich heritage of Burgundy.

Storage advice
For optimal storage of white wine:
- Temperature: Store between 45°F and 50°F (7°C and 10°C) to preserve freshness and maintain delicate flavors. Avoid fluctuations to prevent cork damage and oxidation.
- Light exposure: Keep the bottle in a dark place or use opaque storage to protect the wine from UV and artificial light which degrade quality.
- Sealing: Ensure the bottle’s cork remains moist but intact. Avoid long-term storage in a refrigerator as it can dry out the cork; use a proper wine fridge or cellar instead.
- Bottle position: Store bottles horizontally to keep the cork wetted by the wine preventing air ingress.
- Humidity: Maintain humidity around 60-70% to keep corks from drying out and shrinking which helps seal the bottle properly.
- Special tips: For unopened bottles avoid vibrations and sudden temperature changes. For opened bottles re-cork tightly and store in the refrigerator consuming within 2-3 days for best quality.
These guidelines ensure white wine maintains its intended quality and shelf life.
