Ripe apple fruit, with floral notes and a suggestion of minerality. The texture is supple and rich, with a lingering weight on the palate. Produced from a 0.74ha parcel in the lieu-dit of En Monsard in the village of Bussières, which benefits from the same geology as Pouilly Fuissé, with thin clay and white marl soils. (Drink between 2022-2035). 93 Points
Wow! That was not what I expected. This is far more serious. White fruits, crushed stone, flint, smoke and a lick of new oak. Intense, sprightly and defined on the palate. I can see why Lafon was impressed with the site. The Macon promises much with its unique terroir and old vines and it is all in the glass. Dare I say this is quite Meursault-like with the stamp of a master vigneron. A must try!
