Cave Mallory Talmard Mâcon-Lugny 'Les Genièvres' 2023
The Talmard Mâcon-Lugny "Les Genièvres" is one of the distinct single-vineyard bottlings from Cave Mallory Talmard (Mallory and Benjamin Talmard), a highly-regarded producer in the Mâconnais region of Burgundy. Les Genièvres is a specific, well-regarded vineyard plot (lieu-dit) located within the Mâcon-Lugny commune noted for its favorable exposure on one of the best-exposed plateaus of the Lugny commune, with the region's classic clay and limestone soils. Made from 100% Chardonnay the Talmard Mâcon-Lugny 'Les Genièvres' is celebrated as one of the regions finest examples of unoaked white Burgundy. This style emphasizes purity, freshness, and minerality, which is typical for Mâconnais Chardonnay. The wine displays aromas of ripe orchard fruits, bright lemon/citrus, a touch of white peach and a floral hint of honeysuckle. Medium-bodied, with a supple, creamy texture (due to aging on fine lees), underpinned by zesty, fresh acidity, this is an expressive white wine with a distinct minerality that provides a long, clean finish.
