» MÂCON-VILLAGES "Clos de Condemine"

The Clos de Condemine is located in the commune of Charnay-lés-Mâcon, roughly 3 kilometres from Mâcon. This splendid, gently sloping nine-hectare site lies between the old borough of Charnay and the TGV Station at Mâcon-Loché. Half of the area is allocated to Chardonnay vines. Cultivation here combines modernism, by using modern methods of vine work, and tradition, by manual harvesting.

Luquet's Clos de Condemine is a recent development. In fact, many years ago, Clos de Condemine was an entire estate with its own vineyards and its own wine. After the spread of the Phylloxera virus, the vines were attacked, and then uprooted, giving place to other crops.

When taken on by Domaine Roger Luquet in January 1984, Clos de Condemine consisted of only 3200 sq. metres of vines. Planting began in March 1984 and continued until March 1987 to produce an area of 4.30 hectares. With three years of hard work and determination, we have been successful in recreating this vineyard.

It is on this siliceous (silica-rich) soil, very slightly undulating and exposed to the South-West, that the Chardonnay vineyard extends and gives you the Mâcon-Villages you know so well.
Today, some 35,000 bottles are produced every year and bottled at Domaine Roger Luquet.

Mâcon-Villages "Clos de Condemine", generously fruity and light, will accompany all your entrées. This is a wine that drinks well young, or you can keep it for 3 years.

» MÂCON-VILLAGES "Les Mulots"

The parcel of Les Mulots is located in Cortevaix, a small village between Cluny and Cormatin, approximately 30 kms from Fuissé.

Fifty years ago, Cortevaix was a full viticultural village. However, because of serious economic problems at that time, many wine growers abandoned their vineyards and began growing other crops. We have taken up the challenge, recreating the former landscape. Planting began in 1992 and continues to this day.

This MACON is resolutely Burgundian, with deep gold colour, and a hint of limestone. You will be pleasantly surprised by its concentrated aroma and richness. Its body and length in mouth will stand up to rich, sophisticated dishes, but it can easily accompany hors-d'oeuvres, charcuteries, cold fish, mussels and andouillette sausages.

MACON-VILLAGES should be served at 11°-13°.
It keeps all its charm during the first few years, so it is not necessary to age it before drinking.

» MÂCON-VILLAGES "Le Pavillon"

Planting of the “La Pavillon” plot, located near Cluny in Cortevaix, began in 2009.

On a very rocky terrain just a few steps from the “Les Mulots” vine, Chardonnay still grows and prospers...

We opted for vinification in stainless steel vats, followed by a short phase in oak barrels (oak sourced from the Forest of Tronçais).

Light woody notes and a ripe fruit nose complete a harmonious palate with a good length for a Mâcon. A style all of its own!
In the coming years, we will continue planting on this plot.
