This is 100% Marsanne from both their historical plots – deep clay soils and 50-year-old vines and younger vines on granitic soil at 500m. The 2022 is richer than 2021, returning to classic style. It brims with character, balancing bitterness and freshness without excess acidity. Flavours of fresh apricot and orange skin lead to a clean finish. Production is small with only 8,000 total bottles.

Critics reviews
100% Marsanne. Vinification in concrete with native yeasts. Malo completed. Aged on fine lees in concrete for around 10 months. Bottled in the spring after the harvest. Certified organic.
Tasted blind. Wet wool and spiced pear. There is a pillowy cloud of soft fruit, with a creamy character beneath. Dense and chewy – youthful yet shows real concentration beneath.
Drink 2024 - 2029
The 2022 Saint-Péray Harmonie opens with discrete lemon flesh, white peach, honeysuckle and reductive subtleties. Polished and clean, this medium-bodied varietal Marsanne can be enjoyed over the next two years.
Drink 2023 - 2026
Slightly closed and, I suspect, in need of 6-12 months in bottle, the 2022 Saint-Péray Harmonie has attractive peach and stone fruits and some spicy, toasty nuances. It's medium-bodied, with solid fruit purity and outstanding length.
