Blending the diverse terroirs of the appellation into a harmonious whole, the 2023 white Viré-Clessé Rendez-Vous de Septembre wine reveals a fully ripe profile, with exotic fruit aromas—most notably pineapple. Its bright, zesty finish is finely tuned and delicately framed by a touch of bitterness, creating a beautifully balanced wine. Perfect as an apéritif, with grilled or meunière-style fish, or even escargots. Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee. |
