About Maconnais Wines
The Maconnais anchors the south of Burgundy and is overwhelmingly Chardonnay country. From easygoing Macon-Villages to the mineral heights of Pouilly-Fuisse, it is where great white Burgundy becomes genuinely affordable.

Rounder and sunnier than the northern Cote, with orchard fruit and a gentle mineral lift. It sits near the value end of white Burgundy.
