Domaine Guerrin Macon-Vergisson Les Rochers White Wine 75clBy Winebuyers

This Macon-Vergisson is made from a Chardonnay blend from two terroirs. The first, known as Sur La Roche, is mainly limestone, in the form of surface scree over a subsoil of clay shale. Situated on a plateau 300 meters above sea level, the late ripening results in wines with a good sugar/acidity balance. The second plot, known as En Bille Folland, is on soil composed of clay from the Triassic. With much less limestone influence, it produces supple wines with breadth. This wine puts the accent on the fruit, with a lovely crispness and good minerality. The nose reveals tangy notes of very ripe lemons; in the mouth, it has a charming vigor with a refreshing side. This cuvée offers an explosion of fruits, and is a true wine for pleasure. It can be drunk at any time of day. Domaine Guerrin is a well-regarded producer of still affordable wines from Burgundy.
