Corentin Houillon Veronnet Rouge 2022

Corentin Houillon is another of the superstar Houillon clan (nephew to Emmanuel, Adeline and Aurelien, though only 7 and 15 years younger than Aurelien and Manu respectively). These wines are very much in the style of his family, fresh and alive, but with a glacial Savoyard edge and also speaking to Corentin's technical proficiency having worked widely in top natural and conventional wineries.

Gamay (including some Gamay de Chaudenay, a teinturier variety), pinot noir and mondeuse. Co-fermentation of gamay and pinot noir, 40% whole bunch, macerated 2 weeks, then assembled after pressing with the mondeuse. Raised in vats until bottling. This wine reflects the tradition of Cru Chautagne, a blend of red grape varieties on glacial lands. Fruity, full of life and easy to drink. - Lo-Fi Wines, importer
