In 2024 Caroline and Frantz have renamed their 'Prélude' to Saint Veran 'de Prissé à Chasselas' as they hope to convey more clearly the plots this fruit comes from, which are on limestone exposedIn 2024 Caroline and Frantz have renamed their 'Prélude' to Saint Veran 'de Prissé à Chasselas' as they hope to convey more clearly the plots this fruit comes from, which are on limestone exposed south, except one which faces west - so they all ripen quite early. Bottled after the 2025 harvest. Precision, purity, minerality - it's all of these, with quite a lively line of acidity which drives good weight with real zip.

Concentrated and expressive, it takes control at once. 13.5% at the harvest, with perfect ph. It's a vineyard that gets a lot of millerandage, which reduces the yield and ups the concentration, so that he has to be careful in hot years, but in cool ones, he knows it will always ripen well. Powerful. Drinking range: 2028 - 2036L&S (Oct 2025)

It's from 350m up on the east facing side of Fuissé - the same altitude as their 'la Roche' in Vergisson, but not the same soil - here it's chailles - hard limestone that does not get into the soil in the same way as the degraded limestone of the Roche de Vergisson. An arid soil, Julien calls it. Drinking range: 2027 - 2035L&S (Oct 2025)
