Viré-Clessé Cuvée Spéciale is so-called because it comes from parcels of vines aged between 28 and 70 years old, grown on clay-limestone soils. It is a richly flavoured and textured wine, with trademark Viré-Clessé exotic and mineral flavours and great ability to age gracefully. Ripe green apples, hints of mango and light spices on the nose, followed by a generous and very pure palate where green apples, grapefruit mingle with mangoes and citrus fruits. The wine displays thrillingly pure and crystalline fruit flavours and a long, mineral finish. A brilliant value. In previous vintages, this has been cited by the 3 Michelin-star restaurant, Taillevent as “le Meursault de Macôn.”
