2020 Olivier Merlin Mâcon La Roche Vineuse Vieilles Vignes

91 POINTS

Neal Martin - Vinous

The 2020 Mâcon La Roche Vineuse Vieilles Vignes, from 50 to 60-year old vines, was the first cuvée to be bottled this year. The nose has superior definition to the regular cuvée with green apple and granite. The palate is well balanced, very elegant with hints of ginger and blackberry leaf on the slightly honeyed finish. Lovely.

William Kelley - Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Offering up aromas of pear, yellow orchard fruit and white flowers, the 2020 Mâcon-La Roche-Vineuse Vieilles Vignes is medium-bodied, soft and round, with a delicate core of fruit and a saline finish.
