Description
Mâconnais, Burgundy, France. Sustainable. 100% Chardonnay. "The 2018 Mâcon-Vergisson “Sur la Roche” from Jacque and Natalie Saumaize is a very complex and classy example of Mâcon, offering up a vibrant nose of pear, apple, a touch of nuttiness, orange blossoms and a lovely base of soil tones. On the palate the wine is crisp, fullish and rock solid at the core, with lovely focus and balance, good soil signature and a long, complex and bouncy finish. This does not have quite the dimension of the estate’s excellent Saint-Véran or Pouilly-Fuissé bottlings, but it has old vine intensity of flavor, the same sense of precision and really quite nice acidity for the vintage. Lovely juice." — 89 Points, John Gilman
