About The Winery

Country: France
Region:
Burgundy

Domaine Deux Roches is a highly respected estate led by the Collovray and Terrier families, deeply rooted in the Mâconnais region of Burgundy. The Mâcon-Villages "Tradition" is a benchmark cuvée for the estate, crafted to represent the pure, classic, and vibrant essence of the broader appellation. It perfectly captures the sun-drenched, generous character of southern Burgundy while maintaining a beautiful, energetic freshness.

Terroir: The grapes are meticulously sourced from selected vineyard parcels across the Mâcon-Villages appellation. The vines are rooted in the region's classic clay-limestone soils. This ideal geology provides excellent drainage and heat retention, ensuring generous, ripe fruit flavors, while the underlying limestone bedrock imparts a distinct, refreshing mineral tension.

Style: This white wine is a pure 100% Chardonnay style.

Vinification: The winemaking focuses on absolute purity and the preservation of primary fruit aromas. Following a careful harvest, the juice undergoes fermentation entirely in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. The wine is then aged on its fine lees in these same vats for several months. This precise process builds a wonderfully smooth, rounded texture while completely avoiding any heavy oak influence, ensuring the floral and fruit notes remain pristine and vibrant.

Tasting Notes

Appearance: A bright, luminous pale golden yellow hue with delicate greenish reflections.

Nose: Highly expressive, fresh, and inviting. It opens with vibrant primary aromas of crisp green apple, juicy white peach, and fresh lemon zest. As it breathes, it reveals comforting, elegant layers of acacia blossoms, honeysuckle, and a delicate hint of crushed chalk.

Palate: Generous, well-rounded, and beautifully balanced. The attack is smooth and mouth-coating, instantly delivering a burst of concentrated orchard fruit flavors. Despite its rich texture, it is perfectly lifted by a vibrant, focused line of natural acidity. The finish is remarkably clean, dry, and fiercely thirst-quenching, leaving a lingering note of fresh citrus and stony minerality.
