Mâcon Chaintré Valette (Domaine) (no reserve) 2010
The wine
A golden-yellow colour, Mâcon-Chaintré presents a nose with aromas of white-fleshed fruit and citrus fruit and hints of honey. There is velvety substance on the palate with a lovely acidic backbone.
About the Producer Valette
Philippe Valette belongs to the third generation of wine growers in charge of the 8.5-hectare family domaine of the Mâconnais coast, producing exclusively white wines. Converted into organic farming in 1992, the domaine pays special attention to soil and vines throughout the year. The wines are neither filtered nor clarified. Philippe Valette likes to take his time, the élevage of his wines is done depending on their maturity, not according to the market. The wines spend 9, 14 or 18 months in barrels and even up to seven years for certain cuvées. Outstanding wines are exceptional, with a finesse and a rare complexity
