Introduction:
The 2024 Adrien Perrachon Mâcon-Villages is a fresh, expressive white Burgundy that showcases the finesse of Chardonnay from the Mâconnais region. Known for producing elegant, fruit-forward wines with a mineral backbone, this bottling delivers vibrant acidity, subtle complexity, and a clean, food-friendly profile ideal for everyday enjoyment or refined pairings.

Terrior:
Located in the southernmost part of Burgundy, the Mâcon-Villages appellation benefits from a warmer climate than its northern counterparts, while retaining enough elevation and limestone-rich soils to preserve freshness and minerality. Adrien Perrachon sources fruit from select parcels with optimal sun exposure and natural drainage, enhancing varietal purity and regional expression. Sustainable vineyard practices support the health of the vines and the integrity of the land.

Appearance:
The wine presents a pale straw-yellow hue with light green reflections, indicating youth and vibrancy. Its clarity and brightness suggest minimal intervention and a focus on preserving the grape’s natural character.

Nose:
Aromatic and inviting, the nose opens with green apple, lemon zest, and ripe pear, followed by delicate floral notes of acacia and honeysuckle. A subtle mineral edge—wet stone and chalk—adds a Burgundian signature to the bouquet.

Palate:
Medium-bodied and crisp, the palate shows flavours of citrus (lemon, grapefruit), white peach, and a touch of almond. A linear mineral streak and refreshing acidity give the wine tension and lift. The mouthfeel is smooth and balanced, with no overt oak, allowing the fruit and terroir to shine through.

Finish:
Clean and lingering, the finish leaves impressions of lemon peel, orchard fruit, and a subtle saline nuance. The wine concludes with a dry, mineral-driven sensation that enhances its food-pairing versatility.

Overall Impression:
The 2024 Adrien Perrachon Mâcon-Villages is a textbook example of modern white Burgundy—zesty, mineral, and refined. It’s a wine that punches above its price point, delivering purity of fruit and elegance in equal measure. Ideal as an aperitif or with food, it offers excellent value and immediate drinkability, with the potential to evolve over the next 2–4 years.
