The 2023 Domaine Clement Lavallee Grande Roche Saint Bris is a distinctive Sauvignon Blanc from Saint-Bris in northern Burgundy. Sourced from mature vines planted on clay and limestone soils, it shows citrus blossom, green apple and yellow fruit alongside subtle tropical notes and a fresh mineral character.
On the palate, it is dry, fresh and finely textured, with vibrant acidity balancing ripe fruit and a clean mineral finish. The wine is fermented with indigenous yeasts and matured on fine lees in a combination of tank and barrel, adding texture and depth while retaining Sauvignon Blanc’s freshness and aromatic purity.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Sauvignon Blanc drinkers looking for a distinctive Burgundy expression with bright acidity, fine texture and mineral complexity. Enjoy now or cellar for further development. Ideal with oysters, grilled fish, prawns, salmon, goat’s cheese or fresh seafood dishes.
