Terroir Notes: Nestled on the south-facing slopes of the Mont du Mâconnais in Charnay, the Clos Saint-Pierre site features shallow soils with a pronounced limestone presence. This elevates freshness and energy despite the warm 2023 vintage, with fruit sourced exclusively from the free-run and first-press juices to ensure purity.

Winemaking Notes:  The wine undergoes fermentation and aging entirely in horizontal stainless-steel tanks over approximately eight months, including gentle lees stirring. This approach preserves vibrancy and fruit clarity, avoiding the heaviness often imparted by oak.

Tasting Notes:  On the nose, vibrant floral tones emerge—white blossoms and yellow fruit—accented by nuances of fresh butter and a touch of reduction. The palate is impressively dense and structured, yet never heavy, delivering a satiny texture with remarkable freshness and a long, precise finish that lingers elegantly.

Style & Pairing: Think delicate yet flavorful dishes—seafood (like scallops or halibut), creamy pastas, roasted chicken with a hint of herb cream, or nut-forward cheeses.

Produced from free-run and first-press juice, vinified in stainless steel, the 2023 Mâcon-Charnay Clos Saint-Pierre delivers aromas of peach, white flowers, toasted almonds and freshly baked bread. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and charming, it's fleshy but mouthwatering, concluding with a saline finish. Drink Date: 2024 - 2033
