Domaine Daniel et Julien Barraud Description
Domaine Daniel et Julien Barraud is not only the source of Vergisson’s finest organic wines but also is the standard for world-class white Burgundy from the Mâconnais. The petit hamlet of Vergisson, with its limestone soils and high-altitude vineyards, is where the region’s finest wines are made. Here, families like the Barrauds have for generations preserved their craft in its most honest form, making wine by hand from well-tended organic vineyards and aging their wines in small, oldfashioned cellars. Theirs are wines that without fail can stand tall next to comparable bottles from the Côte d’Or, yet still offer exceptional value
The classic and the pride of every winemaker in Vergisson, ‘La Roche’ sits right next to its namesake in Pouilly-Fuissé and as such, shares much of that vineyard’s intense concentration and stony backbone. In the hands of a master such as Barraud, it always delivers.
Wine Advocate: 90 Points
Aromas of crisp yellow orchard fruit, praline and white flowers introduce the 2019 Mâcon-Vergisson La Roche, a medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy wine that's bright and precise. This has turned out nicely.
Burghound: 88 Points
A discreet but not imperceptible application of wood frames the ripe, fresh and again mildly exotic aromas of white flower, passion fruit and relatively prominent petrol nuances. There is a lovely sense of vibrancy to the delicious, caressing and lightly stony medium weight flavors that also culminate in a fresh, moderately dry and lingering if mildly rustic finish.
