Brilliant white Burgundy at a remarkable price! Surprisingly deep fruit intensity, pear and citrus and firm peach. with impressively sleek texture and weight but this finishes bright and energetic.

This has lovely rich fruit lines pepped up with intense citrus notes and softer shades of firm peach. It is juicy with great, creamy depth, riper peach builds on the palate more, with a lovely broad finish. A fantastic M...(read more)

Mâconnais Burgundy France 13.5% White
Chardonnay. Certified Organic
Very inviting ripe nose, Meyer lemon with a zesty touch. Touch of peachiness, but not overripe in any way. Some florality, white blossom. Nice feel, gently creamy but great mineral line of acidity, like a squeeze of lemo...(read more)

2022 MÂCON VERGISSON La Roche Domaine Barraud
Mâconnais Burgundy France 13.5% White
Chardonnay.
Really attractive nose. Grapefruit and spice, less of the rich ripe tropical fruit but more candied lemon rind. Gentle creaminess again, great concentration and fresh acidity. So good. Gourmand. Nicely done, good balance...(read more)

2020 SAINT VÉRAN Les Pommards Domaine Daniel Barraud
Mâconnais Burgundy France 13.5% White
Chardonnay. Practising Organic
12 months in a mix of barrels and demi-muids 20% new wood. Immediately this has real breadth and power in comparison to the more 'agile' en Creches. Broader, fuller and richer - but still a great freshness zips right thr...(read more)

2021 SAINT VÉRAN En Crèches Domaine Barraud
Mâconnais Burgundy France 13.5% White

Greener and livelier than the 'Arpège' cuvée, more citrus and lift here. Elegant, with a scrape of limestone giving it a bright firm finish.

In 2021 this has been aged in 500 litre Stockinger barrels. As ever the Prelude is an assemblage of four plots in the communes of Prissé and Chasselas, with vines about fifty years old. This vintage has pushed Fra...(read more)

2020 SAINT VÉRAN à la Côte Domaine Frantz Chagnoleau
Mâconnais Burgundy France 13% White
Chardonnay.
The vineyard here is heavy with iron oxide, and high up the slope at over 400m. Facing south, it is arguably best in cooler vintages where Frantz can allow for long hang time on the vine. Again he uses no new wood, but b...(read more)

2021 POUILLY FUISSÉ Alliance-Vergisson Domaine Barraud
Mâconnais Burgundy France 13.5% White

Slightly paler than the 'Pommards', a little more green in the colour. Fresh nose, and like the others this stays fresh on the palate, medium-weight, elegant from a juicy finale.
