Tasting
Domaine du Clos des Rocs, Mâcon-Loché, 2019, white. This autumn, there will be some sad and monotonous end-of-days. You’ll come home from work after a day when your pompous HR director has climbed even higher in your esteem. So since it’ll be a Tuesday night and the weekend is just around the corner, you won’t turn down a nice little glass of white wine when you get home. The Mâconnais offers the best in the region, especially when crafted by Olivier Giroux.
Vinification and Aging
Manual harvesting, very slow pressing after crushing. 90% is vinified and aged in stainless steel tanks and 10% in 500-liter barrels for 11 months.
Food and wine pairings
Serve at 14°C.
