description: Frantz Chagnoleau Saint Veran Prelude 2023 Domaine Frantz Chagnoleau is a small estate run by two talented winemakers, Frantz Chagnoleau and his wife Caroline Gon (winemaker at Héritiers du Comte Lafon from 2006-2022). Frantz has a degree in Oenology and cut his teeth working for Olivier Merlin in the Mâconnais. Since 2013 all of the vineyards have been certified organic.

South west exposure, 300-350m asl. 40 year old vines planted at 9,000 vines/ha. Wholebunch pressed to demi-muids (600L) and foudre with 5% new oak. Those of you who have been won over by the beautifully pristine expressions of Maconnais Chardonnay from Jessica Litaud would be remiss to overlook this bottling from Frantz Chagnoleau. This is dynamite on the nose – a plethora of yellow orchard fruits, chalk, iod…
