Mâcon Les Tilles comes from a parcel only half a hectare in size, where the vines are approximately forty years old. This cuvée is a pleasurable wine which is easy to drink. On the nose it presents intense aromas of citrus fruit and passion fruit. On the palate it is finely-balanced, well-rounded and fresh. This is perfect wine to drink before a meal and with seafood based dishes.
