Macon Villages Blanc Terre de Cray

Appellation

Southern Burgundy offers the vines a swarm of valleys and valleys tinted with watercolor colors. Between the Côte Chalonnaise and the rock of Solutré, the Mâconnais mountains extend over some 40 kilometers, bordered by the Saône and the Grosne. The “cray”, a type of chalky soil with white pebbles, is found here: the best for Chardonnay.
