Tasting note

Rounded, generous and heavily perfumed with pineapple and grapefruit, with tropical fruit and vanilla in the mouth and a final flourish of cleansing lemon rind.

Viticulture

Hand harvested from steeply sloping, south and south easterly facing vineyards around the village of Vergisson, 12km to the South of Mâcon.

Vinification

The grapes are gently pressed in a pneumatic press. After letting the wines settle all the juice is placed in barriques where it undergoes alcoholic and malolactic fermentation. The lees are stirred regularly (batonnage) which adds to the overall complexity of the finished wine. The wine spends 8 to 11 months in barriques depending on the vintage.

Food Match

This full bodied white will compliment white meat in rich sauces, poultry (especially game), pork, veal or rabbit. Excellent with risotto, paella or chargrilled mediterranean vegetables.
