Mâcon is an appellation in the southern Burgundy region of Mâconnais, where the sunnier climate produces warm, fruity, and approachable white wines.
Mainly made from Chardonnay, Mâcon whites offer aromas of yellow fruits, white flowers, and sometimes hints of honey or brioche, all while maintaining a refreshing vibrancy.
On the palate, they are round, supple, and easy to drink, with a bright and straightforward style that makes them perfect for aperitifs or simple dishes such as grilled fish, salads, or roasted poultry.
There are also some fruity and generous red and rosé wines made from Gamay, best enjoyed young.
This appellation is ideal for discovering Burgundy ’s sunnier, more generous side while staying true to the region’s elegance.
