It is Chardonnay only, and at its best it offers much of what Pouilly-Fuisse does at a gentler price. Olivier Merlin and his wife Corinne arrived at La Roche Vineuse in 1987, taking on a run down property and rebuilding it into one of the reference estates of the Maconnais; their son Theo now works alongside them. This bottling comes from a named parcel within the appellation. The whites are whole-bunch pressed, fermented with indigenous yeasts in barrel and given a long elevage on lees, the sort of treatment once reserved for the Cote d'Or.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBest served at around 11 degrees, with grilled fish, roast chicken, salads or goat's cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
