2022 Clos des Rocs Mâcon-Loché ‘En Près Forêt‘ Chardonnay

The Maçonnais sits at the southern end of Burgundy, known for its generous, more opulent styles of Chardonnay with AOC’s like Pouilly-Fuissé and St-Véran always being a go-to for Chardonnay lovers who love a bit of richness. Macon-Loché, one of 26 communes allowed to add their name to the labels, might be less known but still makes world-class wines. Immediate and approachable with notes of blossom, lemon, and ripe white peach. Maturation in stainless steel adds to the freshness, and a lick of salinity completes the wine.
