🏰news | features + short tasting note 【Simon Faure's 2024 Macon Pierreclos, from a challenging yet ultimately rewarding Burgundy vintage, showcases a vibrant and precise expression of Chardonnay.】 Simon Faure, a former electrician, began his winemaking journey in 2023, focusing on pure expressions of the land with sustainable practices. Despite a mild, wet winter and rainy spring, the 2024 vintage in Burgundy yielded wines of great clarity, natural freshness, elegance, and tension, albeit with historically low yields. This wine, born from clay-limestone marl, offers notes of white peach, fresh almond, and flint. The palate is slightly richer yet precise, with a lovely roundness tempered by minerality, leading to a long and fine finish. Expect hints of ripe pear, lemon, acacia, crushed fennel seed, and a cool limestone breeze. 🍴 Chinese Cantonese food pairing various types of suggestion east or west corresponding to wine cost This versatile white Burgundy is excellent as an aperitif or paired with roast white meats, fresh seafood, and crunchy greens.
