Tasting notes:
This is an elegant, unoaked Mâcon-Charnay. Ripe citrus notes on the nose, with a complex palate which balances baked apple and some fresh florals and a gently herbaceous and mineral streak.
About the wine:
Clos de l’Église hails from the southerly village appellation of Mâcon-Charnay. The vineyard has a fantastic south-east facing position sweeping downhill from the front of the Roman village church (Sainte Madeleine) towards the dramatic scenery of the prehistoric site of the Roche de Solutré.
Sourced from 30-50 year old vines from a single, once walled vineyard, sited next to a church.
Food match:
Ideal with a puff pastry chicken pie, or with roast belly pork.
