    Winemaker Notes

    Crisp, textured and with great acidity, this wine is still developing. It is packed with fresh citrus and apple fruits cut with strong minerality.

    Domaine de la Croix Senaillet Winery Image
    The name Domaine de la Croix Senaillet is taken from the name of the cross bestowed upon the village of Davaye by one of its past mayors; Benoit Senaillet. Record has it that Benoit Senaillet donated this cross to this vinegrowing village in 1866 to replace one that was destroyed in 1793 during the French Revolution. Tradition has it that since its blessing in 1867, Croix Senaillet has protected the people of the village and all those who pass by it on their way... Could our estate have been given its name to honor Mr. Senaillet's spirit of initiative or his generosity? Whatever the reason, all the estate’s plots of vines are set around the cross on the slopes of the village. It is interesting to note that Benoit Senaillet was a contemporary of the poet Lamartine who lived at the entry to the village.

    Domaine de la Croix Senaillet is in Southern Burgundy, in Davaye in the very heart of the Maconnais Cru area. This little village close by to Macon, to the west of the Saone River, is steeped in history. In actual fact the estate is right near the famous prehistoric site of Solutre. The climb up this spur of rock that is 492 meters above sea-level gives a wide ranging view over villages and the rolling vine-covered Maconnais hills.

    One of the most popular and versatile white wine grapes, Chardonnay offers a wide range of flavors and styles depending on where it is grown and how it is made. While it tends to flourish in most environments, Chardonnay from its Burgundian homeland produces some of the most remarkable and longest lived examples. California produces both oaky, buttery styles and leaner, European-inspired wines. Somm Secret—The Burgundian subregion of Chablis, while typically using older oak barrels, produces a bright style similar to the unoaked style. Anyone who doesn't like oaky Chardonnay would likely enjoy Chablis.

    St-Véran Wine

    Maconnais, Burgundy

    Occupying vineyards to the west and south of the village of Mâcon, the appellation of St-Véran interweaves with Pouilly-Fuissé, overlapping both the Mâconnais and Beaujolais. St-Véran includes a lot of what was once sold as Beaujolais Blanc. Grown on limestone, St-Véran whites' ageability and power fall somewhere in between the wines of Mâcon-Villages and Pouilly-Fuissé.

    After subtle aromas of lemon, apricot, acacia and honeysuckle, on the palate a St-Véran (always made of Chardonnay) shows fresh focus and clarity while exhibiting roundness and harmonious balance. A great St-Véran will express notes of almond, hazelnut, cinnamon, butter or toast and sometimes an exotic twist of orange peel. Seafood risotto or pasta with mushrooms are perfect pairings.
