About

Product Description:

"Vincent and Isabelle Greuzard started to work with importer Peter Weygandt about ten years ago and after one or two years let him make his own assemblage taking the oldest vines, aging about one-quarter in barrique, about one-half new. They have happily continued this tradition since, with now also a portion of the blend being barrel fermented, but always being sure to get the old vines. The village of La Roche Vineuse (meaning vinous rock) appropriately named for the bevy of limestone found in the vineyards, is located in the heart of the Maconnais, and captures its true "terroir". This lovely wine balances richness with minerality; the mid-palate and length are classic Burgundy. There are less expensive Macons; there may be greater Macons, but we feel there is no finer Macon for the money." -Importer
