Saint-Romain AOC Cuvée de la Mesange 2021 Domaine Ponsot

What kind of wine is it

Saint-Romain Cuvée de la Mésange by Domaine Ponsot is a white wine from Burgundy made from Chardonnay grapes from the Côte de Beaune. It offers a fresh sip and defined structure, with a clear mineral imprint that reflects its origin and guides the overall style.

Where it comes from

The grapes come from Saint-Romain, in the Côte de Beaune, an area recognized for high-quality viticulture. The cool climate and limestone soils shape the profile towards tension and precision, supporting recognizable minerality and measured freshness.

How it is made

Vinification involves temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel to preserve aromatic clarity and fruit purity. Ageing takes place in French oak barrels, adding subtle woody notes and contributing to a harmonious tasting balance.

Tasting notes

On the nose there are aromas of peach, pear and apple, with a mineral hint and subtle notes of honey and stone. On the palate, it is fresh and well-structured, supported by pleasing acidity that balances the fruit. Oak ageing brings contained complexity and a long, harmonious finish.

Food pairings

It naturally pairs with oily fish dishes such as salmon or tuna, where its structure and freshness complement the succulence. It's also well-suited to accompany seafood and soft cheeses, thanks to the balance between minerality and acidity.

When to serve

Recommended when you are looking for a fresh but not light white, capable of accompanying a meal based on fish and seafood. Served chilled, it highlights the balance between fruit, acidity, and oak character, maintaining a technically sound and harmonious profile at the table.
