Macon-Chaintre Le Clos - Domaine Cheveau100% Chardonnay from Mcon Fuiss, France. The Domaine Cheveau was established by Andy Cheveau in 1950 in the village of Solutre Pouilly. The vineyard where the fruit is sourced is located in Chaintre, the southernmost village in the Maconnais. The vines are young averaging 15 years old and after a manual harvest the grapes are pressed pneumatically with a long & slow temperature fermentation and aged in stainless steel for 8 months in the lees. This is

but with bright acidity to balance the red cherry and pomegranate fruit

and an unwavering commitment to quality
