Domaine Frantz Chagnoleau 'Clos Saint-Pancras' Mâcon-Villages, 2023

Regular price $30.00
Sold out

100% organic Chardonnay from a single vineyard site near Viré in the Mâcon of southern Burgundy. The 30 year-old vines are situated on a high altitude site that experiences constant winds, keeping the vines cool to help them build acidity and stave off mold and mildew pressure. The limestone soils also contribute to the wines sharpness. This classic expression of French Chardonnay is aged in older foudre, to achieve texture and roundness that is not as pronounced as it may be with smaller or newer oak usage. The wine has lovely elements of tropical and citrus fruits and with a touch of barrel, is a very well rounded and delicious wine. It is a tried and true pairing with grilled or pan-seared swordfish, served with braised white beans and spinach, and/or with a citrus and halloumi salad, topped with crushed walnuts.

Details

From our Importer: Domaine Frantz Chagnoleau is a small estate run by two talented winemakers, Frantz Chagnoleau and his wife Caroline Gon (winemaker at Héritiers du Comte Lafon). Frantz has a degree in Oenology and cut his teeth working for Olivier Merlin in the Mâconnais. Caroline holds two degrees in agricultural engineering and oenology; she worked at Newton Vineyards in Napa Valley before returning to France to work with Dominique Lafon as head winemaker for Héritiers du Comte Lafon. The relationship with Dominque as a friend and mentor has had a great influence on the couple, which is evident in a lineup of pure, terroir driven Mâconnais wines.

Since 2013 all of the vineyards have been certified organic. As with Lafon, this dynamic duo believe in minimal intervention, which includes the use of only indigenous yeast, as the best way to express the nuances of each unique terroir. Aging is done in mostly large, used French oak, harvest is done completely by hand on a plot by plot basis, allowing each vine to achieve the appropriate balance of sugar and acidity before being picked. This dynamic duo is one of the most talented teams in all of Burgundy, farming the old-fashioned way and making micro-quantities of single vineyard White Burgundy from some of the finest Chardonnay terroir in the world.
