The old vines of Clos du Château, one of the best terroirs in the Poncetys vineyard, deliver a seductive, delicate white wine. The nose reveals aromas of mango, followed by woody, smoky and mineral notes. The dense palate perfectly conveys the terroir through spices, weathered rock and a hint of mango. The finish is long, straightforward and freshly acidic. We can't wait to taste it!

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domain rated (2019 guide) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
About the domain :
This estate, located in the heart of the best Davayé terroirs, is owned by the Lycée Viticole de Mâcon Davayé, and for some years now has been courageously practicing organic farming on no less than 16 hectares, mainly in the Saint-Véran appellation. The winemaking approach here has a major impact on the style of the wines, with very unadorned juices undergoing prolonged fermentation at low temperature. The result is a modern, seductive profile. Note a rare and more original production of reds, which we were unable to taste, and for the anecdote, some highly esteemed goat cheeses!
