2024 Eve & Michel Rey Macon Vergisson Sélection La Roche

Eve and Michel Rey jointly run this small estate in the beautiful village of Vergisson, nestled between the Roche de Vergisson and the Roche de Solutré. They handle all the cellar and vineyard work themselves, so they know every vine. Michel is an exceptionally eager winemaker, and Eve is a true perfectionist. This is likely why the wines from this relatively young estate have improved significantly in recent years. No insecticides or pesticides are used, the soil is cultivated year-round with respect for nature, and the grapes are harvested by hand, with the grapes transported in small crates. What delicious, young-drinking wines for this price!

Eve and Michel Rey care for their vines as naturally as possible, and because they have so few vineyards, they can tend all their vines by hand. They use only organic treatments, if any are necessary, and plow the soil instead of using herbicides.

Grapes are crushed whole bunches in a gentle pneumatic press and fermented with indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Wines are aged for at least 10 months in primarily used French oak barrels. Very little sulfur is added at any stage; wines are bottled unfiltered.

The Rey Macon Vergisson Sélection has a light straw-yellow color with ripe yellow fruit on the nose and distinct notes of butter and vanilla, thanks in part to the refined use of oak. The palate is round with beautiful minerality and fresh acidity. The Macon Vergisson Sélection is a full-bodied yet elegant organic white Burgundy with a beautiful minerality and, importantly, a fantastic price for a wine of this caliber.
