Located in the central Mâconnais, the vines of Mâcon-Lugny extend on the one hand to the west on the slopes of the valley of Saint-Gengoux-de-Scissé, and on the other hand in the valley of Lugny, closed to the south, but extended to the north by the slopes of Mâcon-Chardonnay.
Vinification / Aging

Tasting
The dry white wine has a pale gold color with green reflections. Its nose offers aromas of honey and notes of quince which bring complexity to this wine. On the palate, its suppleness provides a notable persistence of taste after a few years, the wines then reveal aromas reminiscent of candied fruits and sometimes exotic fruits.
Food and wine pairing
Choose as a starter a leek pie or risotto verrines with creamy recipes. Then let its tangy frame slice with the parsley butter of seafood a la plancha (knives), oysters au gratin and the famous Burgundy snails.
