Macon Pierreclos Blanc

This is the workhorse wine of the domaine for the Thévenet family.  The grapes for this cuvée are sourced from four separate parcels within Pierreclos: “Margots”, “Le Château”, “Les Grands Buys” and “La Bucherate”.  The average age of the vines is forty-five years.  The vineyards face east, southeast and south and are situated about 350 feet above sea level on the gently sloping hills of Pierreclos.  The wine is aged in cuve in contact with the fine lees but without any exposure to oak.
