Mâcon Chardonnay, Clos de la Crochette, 2022

Its northerly location makes Clos de la Crochette a completely different style of wine to Lafon’s other Macons, expressing cooler and calmer tones - more orchard fruit than stone fruit or citrus. Fresh, aromatic and juicy ripe apple and pear flavours abound. Seamless and elegant, this is poised and open knit through to a super, long finish. The wine is aged half in large oak foudres and half in oak demi-muid barrels. From the northern sector of the Mâcon, near to Uchizy.
