Chef Un Petit Vert 2024

A playful Vin de France built from the final press fractions of Chardonnay originating in Mâcon-Villages, Mâcon-La Roche-Vineuse, Saint-Véran Les Cras and Pouilly-Fuissé. The cuvée turns four distinct Mâconnais sources into one bright, accessible expression.

The name plays on the French phrase 'Chef, un petit verre' - 'Chef, a little glass!' - replacing verre with vert to echo the wine's lively green-fruited, herbal personality.

The component press juices are blended and fermented in stainless steel with native yeasts. The wine rests on fine lees to build light texture while retaining immediacy; the producer does not publish a precise élevage duration for this cuvée.

Lively and taut, with lime, green apple, white flowers and a subtle herbal edge. The palate is vibrant and energetic, carrying incisive freshness and mineral lift through a clean, dynamic finish.

Serve cool at approximately 9-11°C. Its light-footed, zesty style is suited to aperitivo, fresh goat cheese, summer salads, shellfish and vegetable-led dishes.
