Tasting notes

The vineyard of this Mâcon-Fuissé is situated in the area of “Les Châtaigniers” which produces floral wines with a charmful aromatic expression. At first, it unveils through its clear, golden yellow color. The nose is very floral with hints of hawthorn, honeysuckle, and ripe peaches. On the palate, there is great minerality, freshness and a long finish.

About this wine

Creuze Noire is a renowned wine producer located in the Macon-Fuisse region of France. With a rich history dating back several centuries, this esteemed winery has established itself as a leader in the production of high-quality wines.

The history of Creuze Noire can be traced back to the 18th century when the vineyards were first planted in the fertile soils of Macon-Fuisse. The winery has been passed down through generations, with each new owner adding their own unique touch to the winemaking process. This rich heritage is evident in the exceptional quality of the wines produced by Creuze Noire.

The style of production at Creuze Noire is characterized by a commitment to traditional winemaking techniques combined with modern innovations. The winery takes great pride in its sustainable farming practices, ensuring that the vineyards are cared for in an environmentally friendly manner. This dedication to sustainability not only preserves the natural beauty of the region but also enhances the overall quality of the wines.

Creuze Noire specializes in the production of Chardonnay, the flagship grape variety of the Macon-Fuisse region. The cool climate and limestone-rich soils of the area create the perfect conditions for growing this noble grape. The Chardonnay wines produced by Creuze Noire are known for their elegance, complexity, and exceptional balance. They exhibit a beautiful golden color, with aromas of ripe fruits, citrus, and delicate floral notes. On the palate, these wines are rich and creamy, with a refreshing acidity and a long, lingering finish.

In addition to their Chardonnay wines, Creuze Noire also produces a range of other varietals, including Pinot Noir and Gamay. These red wines are crafted with the same level of care and attention to detail as their white counterparts. The Pinot Noir wines are characterized by their vibrant red fruit flavors, silky tannins, and a subtle earthiness. The Gamay wines, on the other hand, are light and fruity, with a refreshing acidity and a lively character.

Creuze Noire is also known for its sparkling wines, which are made using the traditional method. These sparkling wines undergo a secondary fermentation in the bottle, resulting in fine, persistent bubbles and a complex flavor profile. The sparkling wines produced by Creuze Noire are perfect for celebrating special occasions or simply enjoying as an aperitif
