Domaine Des Gandines Mâcon Villages dry white 2023-2024

RVF Guide to the Best Wines of France 2026 (Sept 2025): 90/100. The Mâcon-villages remains simple, well-ripened, and immediate.

Technical sheet written by the domaine

This Mâcon Villages is made from old vines and young vines planted in the municipality of Saint Albain. It is a fresh wine with explosive aromas of citrus and exotic fruits. It offers a beautiful balance between roundness and acidity. This bottle is not vintage-dated as it is a blend of 40% from 2023 and 60% from 2024 (to carry a vintage, the wine must be at least 85% from that vintage). This blend comes from the excellent harvest of 2023, of which the surplus was kept to complement the very low yield of 2024.
