Elegant and pretty, with and underpinning of pear and mineral fruit. #Macconais can be big and overtly fruity, this is opposite. It was served a little too cold, with some warmth the finish extended as well.

Organic Mâcon at its best. Crisp with a touch of fruit.

May just be my favorite wine of the year! Highly recommended. Driven by lemon acid, Apple, mineral texture with very present lees aging around 9 months. light and elegant.

Very fruity nose. Pineapple, peach, apricot. Minerally on the palette. Light vanilla and butter. Complex. Fun. Would definitely drink again!
