Mâcon-Péronne

When you enter the small medieval village of Péronne in the Mâconnaise region of Burgundy you would never know it was a battlefield under German occupation for almost all of World War I. Fortunately, the war ended, the people rebuilt the village and the vineyards were replanted. Today, Péronne is a small village with less than 600 inhabitants. It is allowed to add his name to the Mâcon appellation, where wine has been produced for centuries, so the wines from this village can therefore carry the name: Mâcon-Péronne. The wines from the Mâcon-Péronne are extremely interesting and famous wineries such as Ramonet make beautiful wines that do not yet have the sometimes ridiculous prices for the wines from, for example, the Chassagne-Montrachet, but we fear that this is also a matter of time.
