Mâcon Villages Blanc 'Les Roches Blanches' Louis Jadot 2010


All wines tasted at the party held for baby Thomas on 25/08/2012. 13% ABV. Cork closure. About £8.99 UK retail, widely available. A respectable Macon from the large by very well regarded Jadot stable. Ready to drink now, good apricots and oak on the nose, zesty chardonnay hit in the mouth. Shortish finish but a good value, easy drinking wine, showing that France can compete with the New World for value accessible wines. From 2012, 15.5/20

    I'm afraid there was NO OAK USED in the production of this wine! Beautiful hints of green apple though and smooth ripe pear. Fabulously crisp, fresh and fruity! I do agree with the fact that this is an amazingly good value wine, which can easily compare and hold its own against New World chardonnays.
