Tasting notes
The 2023 Mâcon-Bussières Vignes de Montbrison, which touches Vergisson, is matured in 20% new oak. The nose offers cooking apple and flinty aromas, a touch of fresh pear in the background. The palate is well balanced with a slightly oily-textured opening. Showing moderate depth and well-judged acidity, it doesn't quite kick on towards the finish, but it should still age well in bottle.

From a clay-limestone site and matured in barrel with 25% new oak. This wine is available sealed either under screwcap or Diam. The site is very close to La Roche-Vineuse … … so this wine is great deal! Introvert mineral nose. And then an exuberant palate that’s almost a fruit salad but corseted too. Then a stony, sculpted finish. VGV (JR)
A cuvée that's one of the stalwarts of the Verget range, year in year out, has turned in a strong performance with the 2023 Mâcon-Bussières Vignes de Montbrison, a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping wine redolent of pear, waxy citrus rind, bread dough and toasted nuts. It will offer a broad drinking window.
