With its pale yellow color and green reflections, the nose has a ravishing charm: dominated by intense notes of citrus (lemon, grapefruit). It also reveals notes of apple, pear and white flowers. The mouth is beautifully balanced between roundness and a refreshing final vivacity. Delicate spicy, floral and fruity notes persist pleasantly to the finish. 

Pair with a zucchini-goat cheese lasagna or a duo of wild and smoked salmon.

This private Domaine is one of the very few properties of this size in the Mâconnais region. It dates back to the 11th century when it was part of the outbuildings of the famous Abbey of Cluny during the Middle Ages. It was purchased after the French Revolution by the de l'Epine family. The domain covers some 62 acres, a third of which containing vines over 40 years old. 

The 40 years old Chardonnay vine grow on clay and chalk soils on the gentle hills which border the Saône Valley between the villages of Lugny and Viré.
