Mâcon-Péronne Vieilles Vignes 2025 Domaine de la Tour Penet
The 2025 Mâcon-Péronne Vieilles Vignes by Domaine de la Tour Penet comes from the Mâconnais, in southern Burgundy, where Chardonnay combines ripe fruit character with the freshness associated with limestone-rich vineyards. The estate has belonged to the Ferret family since 1872, preserving a long winemaking tradition in the village of Péronne. Anne Ramonet has played a central role in shaping the domaine's approach to Chardonnay, bringing experience and a measured understanding of the region's terroir.
This Vieilles Vignes cuvée is produced from Chardonnay vines approximately 60 to 80 years old, planted on the limestone soils surrounding Péronne. These mature vines are central to the wine's identity, offering the potential for greater concentration and depth while maintaining the freshness characteristic of the appellation.
Winemaking includes partial barrel fermentation, introducing an additional dimension of texture and complexity. The use of oak complements the natural richness of Chardonnay, allowing fruit, structure and mineral character to develop in balance.
The aromatic profile suggests ripe pear, apple, white flowers and delicate hazelnut notes, accompanied by subtle toasted nuances. On the palate, the wine is expected to reveal a generous, rounded texture, supported by refreshing acidity and a finely defined mineral impression. The combination of fruit concentration and freshness brings harmony, leading towards a persistent, composed finish.
The 2025 Mâcon-Péronne Vieilles Vignes is a natural companion to roast poultry, substantial fish dishes, mushroom risotto and soft cheeses. Its combination of texture and freshness makes it particularly versatile with dishes that call for a white wine of greater depth.
An expression of old-vine Chardonnay that brings together richness, precision and understated elegance, reflecting the limestone terroir of Péronne and the longstanding winemaking heritage of Domaine de la Tour Penet.
