The wine region of Mâcon Supérieur
Former AOC of the Mâconnais (1943, 91 communes Saône-et-Loire) merged into Mâcon and Mâcon-Villages in 2005: a riper expression of Mâcon with higher alcohol. Chardonnay in whites (acacia, honeysuckle, citrus, almond), Gamay in fresh fruity reds and rosés, secondary Pinot Noir. Clay-limestone slopes between Tournus and Mâcon, semi-continental temperate climate, south-east exposure. Accessible, straightforward profiles, a quality alternative to drink young.
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Cornalin
Black grape variety native to the Valais (Switzerland). It produces renowned wines of a dark purple colour with violet hues, an elegant bouquet and a powerful, fresh, fruity (cherry) and spicy palate. Cornalin wines can be drunk young or after several years of ageing, with game.
