Mâcon Lugny
Arômes d’antan
Nurtured in the family vineyard situated in the village of Chardonnay, this wine comes from the celebrated grape variety of the same name.

The wine comes from the ancient vines on a single parcel of land, called Tansilly, in the Lugny area. Planted in chalky clay soil with the benefit of exposure to the sun all day long, it results in a wonderful, concentrated and perfectly balanced wine.

2016 Vintage
The 2016 vintage is characterised by the maturity of its aromas, which have left their mark on the wine as a result of the sweet white grapes, as well as a bouquet of peaches and quinces. The sweetness and lingering taste in the mouth makes this a rich and complex wine.
