Macon Chardonnay les Combettes

Characteristics: Despite the fact that the vineyard Les Combettes is contiguous with ‘Les Genièvrières’, the two wines produced are dramatically different. Les Combettes is close in spirit to a wine from north Burgundy: woody, rich and full-bodied.

To accompany: Like Les Genièvrières, Les Combettes is a wine to be laid down. As it matures, it takes on overtones of dried fruits, butter and toast, and is a wonderful accompaniment to fish and even foie gras.
