The wine region of Mâcon-Burgy
Mâcon geographical denomination (2005) covering the single village of Burgy at the heart of the Mâconnais, western slope of the Viré-Clessé hillside: 100% Chardonnay with a pale gold-green robe and a more floral than fruity nose — white flowers (hawthorn, honeysuckle) and fresh vegetal notes. North-facing vines overlooking Mâcon-Lugny and the Saône valley. Singular orientation bringing marked acidity and signature vivacity. Jurassic limestone and marl soils — aromatic precision.

The word of the wine: Film maceration
