Terroir
Our vines were planted in 1986 and located in the village of Azé.
Climat & Sol : South-east facing slope on a limestony terrace. Highest vineyards of the village of Azé, they benefit from a great sunny exposure

Winemaking and aging
To preserve their integrity, grapes are carefully harvested and sorted out by hand. Full clusters. Following the pneumatic press, juices stay in a vat overnight for a cool settling down. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentations take place in stainless steel vats.
Aging is 100% realized in stainless steel vats on fine lees 9 to 12 months.

Tasting notes
EYE : Beautiful and bright. Pale yellow color with green tints.
NOSE : The nose is refined and delicate developing lime, citrus but also white fruits (pear) notes.
PALATE : On the palate, round and fresh. Salivating. White flowers aromas (hawthorn) and touch of saltiness.

Service and cellaring
It can be served from now at 11-13° C or cellared for 3 to 5 years.

Food & wine pairings
Our Mâcon-Azé 2015 can be greatly enjoyed with a meal or just by the glass. It will perfectly match with grilles poultries, a seafood plater or fishes in a sauce.
