Origin

At the southern tip of the Mâconnais, this vineyard brings together several villages in the North (Prissé and Davayé) and in the South (Leynes, Chasselas, Chânes, part of Solutré-Pouilly and of course Saint-Véran) of the Roche de Solutré.

Soil

Stony boulders and a soil of clay and limestone from the Jurassic era.

Vinification

Traditional vinification. The grapes are pressed on arrival at the winery using pneumatic presses. The fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks thermo-regulated at 16°C. The wines are aged on fine lees for 10 months in stainless steel.

sensory characteristic

Colour

Clear yellow in colour.

Nose

Subtle aromas of white fruits (peach, pear), fern and almond.

Palate

The minerality dominates the palate with a lot of freshness. A well-balanced wine.

Recommendations

Perfect with noble seafood (gambas, lobsters, crayfish...) but also with foie gras and white meats with a creamy sauce (veal or poultry). Sushi pairs perfectly with its minerality. Ideal with Goat cheese.
