Mâcon-Chardonnay Domaine Thevenard
Situation - Mâcon-Chardonnay
Grape variety Chardonnay
Our Mâcon-Chardonnay cuvée is a blend of two parcels located in the commune of Chardonnay.
An old vineyard planted on a hillside with white soils and shallow depth. This part will give a lot of character to the cuvée, with volume, richness, and a concentration of ripe fruit.
The second parcel, on the other hand, is a young vineyard on red soils with a slightly deeper profile, which will contribute freshness, vibrancy, and a floral aspect to the wine.
The blending of these two parcels provides a perfect balance and harmony to this Mâcon-Chardonnay.
