Winemaker Daniel Barraud selects only his upper slope, older vines for this sensuous cuvée; “Crays” is one of the more bountiful vineyards in Vergisson, facing due south.

Barraud Macon-Vergisson La Roche 2009
France
/
Mâconnais-Burgundy
The insider's white Burgundy; always outperforms. “...spiced pear and white flower aromas...the detailed, racy and minerally flavors possess slightly more prominent acidity, especially on the tension-filled, dry and punch finish.” — Burghound

Barraud Pouilly-Fuisse En France 2009
France
/
Mâconnais-Burgundy
In the heart of Vergisson, the “En France” vineyard combines limestone and clay soils for a wine that displays both great concentration and mineral precision. “A pretty blend of both white and yellow orchard fruit aromas trimmed in a hint of pain grillé leads to rich, supple and quite generous medium-bodied flavors that are delicious...In sum, this is solid...” — Burghound

Barraud St. Veran En Creches 2009
France
/
Mâconnais-Burgundy
“En Crèches” sits close to the legendary “La Roche” vineyard in Pouilly-Fuissé, and if it was any more electric you could jump-start your car off it. “...citrus and white orchard fruit notes, both of which can also be found on the focused, intense and fleshy medium-bodied flavors that also possess particularly good vivacity in the context of the vintage. This should be quite good.” — Burghound

Barraud St. Veran En Pommard 2009
France
/
Mâconnais-Burgundy
“...medium weight flavors are even richer, more concentrated and brimming with dry extract that buffers the solid acid spine and citrusy finish. This is certainly opulent but not at all heavy or clumsy and should be excellent with just a few years in bottle.” — Burghound

Barraud Macon-Vergisson La Roche 2008
France
/
Mâconnais-Burgundy
The insider's white Burgundy; always outperforms. Gorgeous lemon-butter notes with a bit of fresh mixed nuts on the nose; the mouth reminds of Puligny, with its fresh, herbal and lemony character. Wonderfully cut and precise, with an added layer of candied citrus...

"Green-tinged yellow. Fresh pineapple, pear, tangerine and minerals on
the nose, with an exotic note of green cardamom coming up with aeration.
Juicy, gently sweet orchard fruit flavors are brightened by zesty
minerals and deepened by a suave vanilla quality. Leaves smoky mineral
and lees notes behind on the finish, which is impressively pure and
persistent."--Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar
“...a
discreet touch of toasty oak merges into ever so slightly exotic flavors
that possess real volume and fine dry extract levels that culminate in
an explosive finish. This has a terrific combination of fine depth and
an almost pungent minerality.” — Burghound
