Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Jun 19
The 2016 Mâcon-Pierreclos Tri de Chavigne comes from parcels on top of the slope and picked over several tries. It has a taut and well-defined bouquet with yellow plum, nectarine, mint and light aniseed scents, closed at first but opening nicely with aeration. The palate is ripe and rounded on the entry with pineapple and light nectarine nose, good weight and yet the finish just loses a little cohesion when you seek more focus. Nevertheless, this is a very capable Mâcon-Pierreclos. Tasted at Farr Vintners Verget/Guffens-Heynan tasting.
