Hachette

"Gilded with fine gold, this wine's color is edged with green highlights. The nose exudes subtle woody notes in a fruity and floral environment: vine peach, lemon, rose, and orange blossom. With good liveliness on the attack, the palate reveals just the right amount of woodiness, delicate fruitiness, and a deliciously long finish. " (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2019)

About wine:

Gilded with fine gold, this wine's color is edged with green highlights. The nose exudes subtle woody notes in a fruity and floral setting: vine peach, lemon, rose, and orange blossom. Lively on the attack, the palate reveals just the right amount of woodiness, delicate fruitiness, and a deliciously long finish.

About the estate:

This estate was established by Francis Fichet in 1976, leaving the Igé cooperative winery. His sons Pierre-Yves and Olivier, who have been at the helm since 1999, now cultivate 35 hectares of vines, producing around fifteen different wines from four Burgundy grape varieties. A sure bet in the Mâconnais region, complemented in 2006 by a small wine merchant business.

Note and opinion by Mr. JEAN PIERRE M. Published on 04/23/2019

Very typical Burgundy on the nose and palate, woody without being overpowering. I will place another order when the 2008 vintage comes out.
