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. It should be served between 11 and 13°C and it will be a perfect match for dishes such as roasted chicken, veal blanquette or frog legs.

Born into a family whose wine making origins go back to 5 generations , Dominique Martin began his own path with the exploitation of 5 hectares of vines in Leynes. Quickly, he takes over the family vineyards and Christine joins the adventure in 1990. Soon after, a vathouse is build and the estate will take the name of “Domaine de la Creuze Noire” in reference to the locality “La Creuze Noire” in Leynes where are situated the estate, the tasting cellar and the winery as well as Dominique’s first vineyards from which is made our Beaujolais-Villages Leynes.

The French Wine region of Burgundy (aka “Bourgogne”) may be small in size, but its influence is huge in the world of vino. The complexity of Burgundy can cast fear into the heart of even a seasoned wine pro, but fear not – the region need only be as complicated as you want it to be. Yes, it is home to some of the most expensive wines in the known universe, but there are also tasty and affordable wines.

Main grapes:

Pinot Noir originated in Burgundy and these vines cover 34% of the region, accounting for 29% of overall wine production. The red grape does extremely well in limestone and clay soil, which helps create their complexity. Pinot Noir wines from Burgundy range in colour from cherry to brick, are light in body, and typically have red fruit and spicy flavours. Gamay is a red grape also grown in Burgundy, but only makes up 10% of the vines.

Chardonnay is the primary grape for white wines in Burgundy, making up 48% of the vines and 68% of production. Chardonnay appreciates Burgundy’s marl soil, which gives it delicate floral, fruit, and mineral aromas and full-bodied flavours. Aligoté is the second white grape, accounting for 6% grown. {Read more about the ancient Aligoté grape in Burgundy.}

The region does produce a sparkling wine called Crémant de Bourgogne. It can be made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy, and Melon. Varieties include blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs, and rosé.
