En quelques mots

The vines producing our "Château London" spread out in the setting sun, on its soil alternating marl and limestone, between 220 and 250 meters in altitude. This situation offers a good climatic compromise between southern influences and the coolness of the Mâconnais heights.

Dégustation : Our Mâcon-Igé exhales aromas of yellow fruits and dried fruits. These yellow fruit aromas can be found in the mouth. It is a delicious wine to be enjoyed in its youth.
Accord Mets & Vins : Shellfish / Oysters / Seafood, Fish, White meat and poultry, Sushi / Smoked fish

Description

The history of Igé is inseparable from that of the hamlet of Domange, whose original parish center is the church of Saint-Pierre, built around 953 by the monks of Cluny. The vineyards of the Mâcon-Igé appellation adjoin Azé to the north and Verzé to the south, where the landscape widens into a vast elongated basin. The subsoil here is made up of Upper Jurassic limestone. The vines producing our "Château London" spread out in the setting sun, on its soil alternating marl and limestone, between 220 and 250 meters in altitude. This situation offers a good climatic compromise between southern influences and the coolness of the Mâconnais heights.
