Producer >
Gérald Talmard, cousin of Mallory at Cave Talmard, produces a very small range of wines from 17 ha of vineyard in the village of Uchizy, in the northern Mâconnais. Gérald’s philosophy has always been to keep things simple and to emphasise the pureness of the wines. The Mâcon-Uchizy is made from 100% Chardonnay and fermented entirely in tank.
Viticulture >
This 17 hectare estate is situated in the village of Uchizy, in the Northern Maconnais. Uchizy sits at the point where the alluvial plain of the Saone River begins to rise away towards the limestone rich hilly outcrops to the west. The soils around the village have a loam/clay topsoil over a limestone base. The climate is continental with warm summers and cold winters. The farming approach is minimum intrevention and harvesting is done by machine.
