Domaine Gonon | Mâcon-Villages

2008

A wonderful and affordable white Burgundy from one of the rising stars in the Mâcon, Jean-Christophe Gonon. Made from young vines running up the limestone and clay slopes of Vergisson, this wine has everything you would expect from a much more expensive Burgundy.

Our tasting notes

Pale gold colour. Hints of citrus and tropical fruits on the nose with a touch of honey suckle. Lovely round and rich wine with good acidity and minerality. For the price this is a surprisingly serious white Burgundy.
