    The wine

    Référence absolue du Mâconnais, Jean-Marie Guffens est bien connu pour avoir hissé ses vins blancs au niveau des plus grands crus de la Côte de Beaune. Jean-Marie Guffens a d'abord élevé son vin en fût (1/4 de bois neuf) avant d'affiner cet élevage en cuve béton. Cette cuvée revêt une robe paille dorée et présente un nez d'une pureté inouïe et d'une grande fraîcheur sur des notes d'éclats d'amandes et d'abricot. En bouche, le vin se montre gras et persistant et la minéralité qui en émane apporte une juste tension à l'ensemble. Ce vin peut être servi dès maintenant et s'accordera parfaitement avec les plats suivants : ravioles de pétoncles en sauce au curry, turbot et sa sauce hollandaise, poularde aux morilles.

    Information about domain Guffens Heynen

    After studying a year in France in 1976, Maine and Jean-Marie Guffens-Heynen never returned to their native Flanders. Enchanted by the Burgundy vineyard and the land of Vergisson so dear to Lamartine, they cast aside their artistic impulses for the viticulture school of Mâcon. An internship with a producer and here they are now, three years later, at the head of a small vineyard in Pierreclos. Domaine Guffens-Heynen was born. In 1990, the couple decided to expand their activities and create the Verget trading house in Sologny. Breaking with the Burgundian traditions, they would be the first to buy white grapes from the best domaines of Mâconnais, Côte d'Or and Chablisien. The wines are then vinified, aged and then marketed under their own name; excluding trading, the Domaine Guffens also produces Mâcon-Pierreclos, Saint-Véran and Pouilly-Fuissé, and since 1997, VDP of the Vaucluse of the Domaine des Tourettes. Against all odds, these "philistines" mastered the art of Chardonnay, respected by all (including the greatest of the Côte de Beaune), praised by critics, sought after by connoisseurs. The wines from the Mâconnais and the Luberon have acquired a solid reputation; cuvées polished like diamonds, always very pure, and both rich and tense.
