Coming from varying terrain, aspects, and elevation, the white wines of Mâcon-la-Roche-Vineuse present a range of profiles. While they are all accessible and instantly appealing, they can be very complex with their sustained yellow gold color. Aromas of vanilla and tropical fruit like mango indicate good maturity, underscored by an overall nose that is intense and fairly remarkable. After a forthright attack, one can appreciate a slightly honeyed length, but one without residual sugars that result in great fleshiness on the finish. Handpicked with a traditional fermentation in stainless steel tanks during 8 months, on fine lees.
Critical Acclaim
COMMENTARY: The 2020 Roux Père & Fils Mâcon La Roche-Vineuse is bright and pleasing with an excellent bite in the finish. TASTING NOTES: This wine offers aromas and flavors of Golden Delicious apple, dried leaves, and savory spices. Serve it a well-seasoned, Panko-coated pan-fried Petrale sole.
