About the winemaker
"I met my wife Sylvaine while studying oenology. Together we started in southern Burgundy in Solutré, Chaintre, Prisse, Igé and La Roche with a 'métayage contract.' This involves paying the landlord in wine. Fortunately, the contract is now paid off and we can export our wines."

Bourgogne, Mâcon, France
<div><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">The Mâcconais is the southernmost wine region of mythical Burgundy on the banks of the Saône River. If you follow the river a few kilometers south, you'll enter the Beaujolais. Because of its calcareous soil, the white Bourgognes are especially interesting, as they show a lot of minerality and fresh aromas. The Mâconnais is a real transition area between the north and south of France. This is mainly expressed in language, architectural style and climate. In fact, it actually is a bit warmer than the more northern Burgundy regions, but the all-rounder, chardonnay, can withstand this just fine. This warm style from chardonnay from Mâcon has received a hefty one-year oak aging, partly (15%) in new wooden barrels and the rest in 6-year-old barrels. Despite the oak aging, this style of chardonnay still manages to retain its beautiful acidity.</span><br></div>
