The village of Lugny is located high up in the South of the Mâcon region. It has a great reputation for its white wines which has made Mâcon famous.

*ALL PRICES IN BOND* 88 - 89 points Jasper Morris MW Inside Burgundy: Currently in tank, on its finings. Pale colour. A light fresh bouquet with attractive fruit. Some plums, some fresh apple, a steady build up in flesh towards the back of the palate, a good balancing acidity, and fine persistence. Really very good indeed.
Domaine Louis Jadot bought Château des Jacques in 1996. Situated in Moulin à Vent, one of the finest appellations of the Beaujolais, the jewel in this domain’s crown is a 9-hectare clos of Chardonnay, Clos de Loyse.

*ALL PRICES IN BOND* 89 points Jasper Morris MW Inside Burgundy: Bottled late November. Pretty lemon with a lime tint, this is a little stricter at first on the nose, after bottling, but with a wonderful wealth of apple and fresh pear fruit behind, and very good length. Extremely successful. Fine long aftertaste.
*ALL PRICES IN BOND* 92 points Jasper Morris MW Inside Burgundy: Bottled end November. Mid yellow in colour, but fresh. There is an impressive weight of fruit for this hillside vineyard. Significant volume of fresh fruit, tinged with its usual lime blossom character, and good crisp finish with just the right acidity.
As summer rolls on, we had a bottle of this on Sunday and it's drinking sensationally. Treat yourself to a 6 pack or two. Stock available to be delivered this weekend.

88 points, William Kelley, Robertparker.com: Notes of pear, grapefruit and bread dough introduce the 2020 Bourgogne Chardonnay Orane, a medium-bodied, satiny and incisive wine with a tangy spine of acidity and a saline finish. This has turned out nicely.
Generally consumed as early as the year following the harvest and in the following 4-5 years. Serve chilled but not cold: 11 - 12 ° C. Open at the last moment.
Pair with: Saffron scallops, Roasted sea bass with bacon, Gibelotte rabbit
