To the north are the Pouilly-Fuissé, Pouilly-Loché and Pouilly-Vinzelles appellations. The Domaine de Curis vineyards are adjacent to Pouilly Fuissé. Characteristics The vineyards of Domaine de la Chapelle aux Loups surround a 12th century Romanesque church, for which they are named. Situated in the southwestern corridor of the Saint Véran appellation near the cliffs of Solutré, the limestone soils of this Domaine are ideal for making fine Chardonnay. Wine making Saint Véran Domaine de la Chapelle aux Loups is vinified in stainless steel tanks and bottled in spring in order to keep all its freshness and fruitiness. Winemaker's comments / Gastronomy This wine is very dry, delicate and youthful, pale yellow in colour with greenish-gold highlights and reveals a floral and fruity bouquet, and has a marked hazelnut flavour. It is refreshing as an aperitif. It will also be a good partner for hors d'oeuvre, delicately flavoured charcuteries, oysters, fish, snails and andouillettes. Preservation Saint-Véran Domaine de la Chapelle aux Loups wine will be at its best in 3 to 5 years.
