Mâcon-Villages Chardonnay (750ml) is a delightfully crisp, vibrant, and pure expression of world-class white Burgundy from the sun-drenched Mâconnais region in the south of France. Unlike heavily barrel-aged New World styles, a traditional Mâcon-Villages is typically vinified with completely zero oak contact to safeguard the unadulterated freshness and elegant fruit purity that this historic appellation is famous for. Sourced from vineyards rich in ancient chalk and limestone, it balances its juicy orchard fruit core with a gorgeous, refreshing minerality.
Terroir Driven, Unoaked Brilliance
By letting the grapes ferment entirely in stainless steel, this wine allows the authentic character of southern Burgundian terroir to shine. The high concentration of limestone in the soil infuses the wine with a distinct, structural finesse and a delicate salinity, making it an incredible, everyday alternative for fans of Chablis who are looking for premium French quality at an accessible price point.
Tasting Notes
  • Aroma: Bright straw-gold with delicate silvery reflections in the glass. The nose is highly expressive and fragrant, opening with enticing aromas of white flowers, acacia blossom, and citrus zest, underpinned by crisp green apple and a faint hint of fresh lemongrass.
  • Palate: Light-to-medium bodied, lively, and wonderfully energetic. The palate bursts with pure, clean flavours of crunchy pear, yellow nectarine, and fresh grapefruit, seamlessly woven into a sleek, silky mid-palate texture.
  • Finish: Crisp, dry, and exceptionally refreshing. It tapers off into a long, focused finish driven by a precise line of mouthwatering acidity and a lingering whisper of chalky, flinty minerality.
