Cuvée à l'Ancienne, Mâcon Charnay Chardonnay 2009, 13%, €10.39, Curious Wines
This cuvée (or blend) has a pale straw colour with hints of green and pleasant peachy aromas. On the palate, it is full, with citrus prominent, and a gentle acidity. Over all the wine is fresh and lively with a lasting finish. Indeed, it is one of those wines that didn't promise all that much at first but which went on to deliver very well.Négociant /Producer www.Boutinot.com recommends

Boutinot has an office in the southern part of the Mâconnais and works with the Cave de Charnay-les-Mâcon to produce this wine. Charnay is one of the smallest villages in the area, entitled to use its name on the label. Chardonnay is also the name of a village here, the home of the famous grape.
Curious Wines are running a Chardonnay promotion this month, offering a generous discount of 20% on their range from across the world, with prices going from a low of €6.39 to 21.60.
