Fermentation
The fermenting process either takes place in stainless steel tanks, cement tanks or in oak barrels. The length of this phase varies: it can take several weeks or even several months. This is a very important stage , when the wine acquires most of Bourgogne Mâcon Villages.
Situation
The Mâconnais region is roughly rectangular, being 50 Km from North to South and about 15 Km East to West. This wine results from the blending of various growths from Chaintré, Uchizy and Farges-les-Mâcon. This fine combination shows balance and delicate aroma, which truly characterizes pure Chardonnay.
Tasting
Brilliant light gold colour. Fresh fruit aromas (citrus) combine with a refreshingly floral nose. The supple, full palate is long and harmonious, ending on a pleasingly lemony note.
