The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine The absolute elite of the Mâconnais region, elevated by the French press to the rank of “the greatest chardonnay winemaker in the world”, Jean-Marie Guffens is an icon. His white wines are lined up alongside the most prestigious Burgundian estates and all wine aficionados know the value of his precious vintages.
Wine Good news ! The 2021 White Vin de France Chardonnay offers a very high level of quality for this vintage, combining maturity and freshness. Olivier Poussier underlines a "level rarely reached in the last 5 years!" The result is a smooth, precise wine, with no exuberance, as Jean-Marie Guffens knows how to do so well. A unique and original wine crafted by two of the biggest figures of the French wine world!
Vinification Hand harvested, 70% matured in barrels and 30% in stainless steel tanks.
