Mâcon Villages white La Fougueuse alexis de benoist 2022 75cl

Grape: Chardonnay

Originally from Champagne, Alexis de Benoist settled in 2010 as an artisan winemaker in the family property to reinstate the culture of the vine, interrupted for a century, and reconnect with its history. Since then, the family has regained its title of winemaker.

Today, he cultivates 9,5 hectares of vines spread over two wine regions: Mâconnais and Beaujolais.

The intention is to harmonize the grape variety and its terroir to obtain wines with character. Anxious to preserve the environment and the quality of his wines, Alexis de Benoist has chosen to focus his efforts on the vine, favoring agriculture and a traditional cultural mode linked to observation.

In this 30 to 80 year old vineyard, the harvest is done by hand. The raisins are thus called healthy, when ripe and remain intact on arrival in the vats for vinification in whole bunches.

The choice of traditional vinification and aging aims to preserve the freshness of the fruit, while retaining structure, in order to produce an expressive, balanced and delicate wine for laying down.
