THE STORY

About this wine

Dry, mineral, medium-bodied white Burgundy from the Mâconnais — 100% Chardonnay, honeysuckle and white flowers over ripe melon and white peach, citrus lift, a chalky, saline, mouthwatering finish.

Verget is a Burgundy négociant house founded in 1990 by Belgian winemaker Jean-Marie Guffens. Julien Desplans joined in 2006 and oversees grape purchasing and winemaking, with the house emphasizing meticulous sourcing and separate expression of terroir.

Worth knowing

Terres de Pierres means land of stones, and the name is earned. The 2024 blends Chardonnay from four Mâconnais climats — Viré, Bussières, Pierreclos and Vergisson — into roughly 10,000 bottles.

CHARACTERISTICS AND TASTING TIPS OF THE Verget Macon-Villages Terres de Pierres 2024

Tasting

Color: Pale yellow, with flashes of gold and green.
Nose: Floral and expressive right away — white flowers and honeysuckle over ripe melon, then lemon zest, pear, and white peach. Underneath, a mineral thread with flint and a light smoky edge.
Palate: Dry and medium-bodied, fine-boned rather than heavy. Lively acidity carries ripe melon and white peach with a fresh citrus lift, and the finish sets firm and chalky — saline, mouthwateringly mineral.

Pairs Beautifully With

A must try with oysters and shellfish
A must try with grilled trout and simply cooked seafood
A must try with goat cheese, quiche and fresh cheeses
