Product Information
If you are into Chardonnay, then you will love this. What we mean by that, is if you like the creamy, rich and buttery style with loads of citrus notes then this is the wine for you. André Bonhomme’s first harvest took place in 1956. He was the first grower in the Mâconnais to bottle and sell his own wine, rather than sell to a cooperative, and was at the origin of the creation of the new Viré-Clessé appellation in 1998. Vire Clesse is one of the best value Burgundy Appellations you will find! Today, son-in-law Eric Palthey and André’s daughter Jacqueline are in charge of the 11-ha estate, where their son, Aurélien (Oenologist) is taking centre stage.
