White Burgundy in a league of its own. Rich and golden, with honeyed depths and racy minerality; a wine for buttery scallops or fish carpaccio. Mâconnais vigneron extraordinaire Jean Thévenet makes awesomely intense Chardonnays using methods others shun as commercially suicidal. Risking calamitous weather, his grapes are picked over-ripe, often yielding wines of surpassing richness. Fermentation occurs without cultured yeasts and can last up to 2 years. Truly amazing. "Apple pie in a glass. Oh alright6 then - tarte tatin - if you want to be picky. Delicious nonetheless." Wine & Spirit, May 2008
