About This Wine
Mâcon-Villages Vieilles Vignes is a vibrant and expressive Chardonnay, made from 40- to 50-year-old vines rooted in mineral-rich clay-limestone soils in southern Burgundy. Pale yellow with golden glints, it reveals a complex aromatic profile of ripe wild peach, pear, and citrus zest, layered with hints of grapefruit, acacia, and white-fleshed fruits. The palate is rounded, textured, and lively, showing excellent freshness and balance with a long, mineral-driven finish ending with floral notes. This wine beautifully reflects the maturity of old vines and the elegance of the Mâconnais terroir.
