Notes on the Wine

Ruby-cherry color with a nose of licorice and red berries. The palate is round and smooth with earthy and mocha notes. This wine is elegant, refined, and light in the mouth.

Notes on the Producer

The vineyards, planted mostly to Chardonnay, are spread among two major appellations: St. Veran and Macon-Villages (Pierreclos). Thevenet also produces a Bourgogne Rouge and a Macon Rouge as well as an outstanding sparkling wine composed entirely of Chardonnay. The grapes for the Macon Pierreclos come from two select parcels: Margot and Chavigne. Average yield from these vineyards is approximately 60 hectolitres per hectare; approximately 25,000 bottles are produced annually. The St. Veran comes from an exclusive vineyard site in Prisse, the "Clos de l'Ermitage". The major part of this "clos" is planted to vines 45 to 70 years of age and the wine from this parcel is bottled separately. Yields average 42 hectolitres per hectare with annual production of 13,000 bottles. Not a single drop of wine is sold to negociants
