Romain Cornin has been gradually taking on the reins at this family Domaine, with father Dominque playing an ever-valuable role behind the scenes. The family make intense, finely textured, vivacious Chardonnay, which is produced following biodynamic principles – all the Domaine`s wines are certified organic. This 2020 Mâcon-Chaintré has everything one wishes for in a beautifully satisfying, ready-to-drink, unoaked white Burgundy. Its quality comes from the age of the vines (some are more than 50 years old), from Romain`s conscientious work in the vineyards, and from his light, sensitive hand in the cellar. Colour is a bright green-gold with finely concentrated aromas of peaches and honeysuckle. Palate is medium bodied and silky-smooth, boasting intense, pure fruit flavours. This is an energetic, vibrant wine, with a crisp, dry finish (for drinking now-2023).
