Mâcon Uchizy, Meurgey-Croses, 2021
- White Still
- Chardonnay
Mâcon-Uchizy is part of the larger Mâconnais region in southern Burgundy, which is renowned for its Chardonnay wines. The wines from Uchizy, located north of Mâcon, are typically bright, fruity, and easy-drinking, with a touch of minerality due to the limestone-rich soils.
This second wine of Pierre Meurgey is a delightful and approachable Chardonnay, showcasing the vibrancy and purity of the 2021 vintage, and a great choice for those looking for a well-crafted, everyday white Burgundy that delivers quality and character without being overly complex or heavy.
It's a versatile food wine that pairs well with a range of dishes, an excellent match for seafood, such as oysters, grilled fish, and shellfish. It also pairs beautifully with poultry dishes, salads, and soft cheeses like goat cheese or Brie.
Drinking window: 2023 - 2030
What the critics say:
"The 2021 Mâcon-Uchizy has an attractive petrichor scented bouquet, crisp and focused, almost Chablis-like in style. The palate is fresh and vibrant on the entry, tensile with a keen thread of acidity that imparts plenty of tension and nerve on the finish. Bravo. Tasted blind at the BIVB tasting. "
