Clos de l’Eglise, AOP Macon Charnay

Clos de l’Église hails from the southerly village appellation of Mâcon-Charnay, just north of Boutinot’s Burgundian base in Saint-Vérand. The vineyard has a fantastic south-east facing position sweeping downhill from the front of the Roman village church (Sainte Madeleine) towards the dramatic scenery of the prehistoric site of the Roche de Solutré. It’s here that the fruit is grown for this elegant, unoaked Mâcon-Charnay, a wine that complements our white Burgundy offering

Production

Sourced from 30-50 year old vines from a single, once walled vineyard, sited next to a church

Tasting notes

This is an elegant, unoaked Mâcon-Charnay. Ripe citrus notes on the nose, with a complex palate which balances baked apple and some fresh florals and a gently herbaceous and mineral streak.

Food match

Ideal with a puff pastry chicken pie, or with roast belly pork
