France Chardonnay Burgundy Macon-Villages 750ML
/

"Let's finish with the 'Grand Elevage': a blend of the Mâcon-Péronne 'Les Légères' plot, Mâcon-Charnay, and the youngest vines of Mâcon-Bussières 'Montbrison.' Vinified primarily in barrels, this blend, with a complex, slightly buttery and fruity nose and a rich palate ending with a beautiful acidity of ripe grapes, is what one would expect from a bottle of white Bourgogne." -J.-M. Guffens

Fermented & aged in used oak barrels, the aging done on the lees for 6 months without racking, but with occasional batonnage. 7000 bottles produced.

Verget

VITICULTURE | VERGET

Before being able to spend significant time in the Maconnais, Jean-Marie was a believer, like many others, that great chardonnay comes from the more serious appellations. He didn't have enough money to acquire vineyards at the time, so he started buying fruit and created Verget in 1990.Verget follows the same ideals as the Domaine wines " the best wine is made using the best grapes" they have always only bought grapes in a very meticulous manner. Since 2006, Julien Desplans joined Jean-Marie and oversees all of the vineyards and purchases, while JeanMarie is still supporting with the vilification. By its original approach, Verget is a laboratory of terroirs and a creator of climates which reveals all the aspects, all the nuances and the subtleties of the same appellation. The relationships with the growers are most important, as Verget determines the vineyard management and is often doing the picking.

VINIFICATION | VERGET

As with the domaine wines, the press is a crucial part of the Verget process. Each plot is pressed and vinified separately. During pressing, the person in charge is carefully watching and tasting along the way. The wines are aged on the lees and stirred depending on each cuvee and vintage. Aging is in cement tanks, stainless vats, or barrels and often the final product is a combination. There are unique cement tanks that have an egg shape and are horizontal rather than vertical which allows for natural circulation of the lees
