Continuing with exploring easily available and affordable white burgundies, the next bottle is from Famille Perrachon. Compared to the previous one, the Cave de Viré VV, this is not a Macon but a straight Bourgogne, for the same price basically and from the same vintage. A clear step up in quality.

Proper white burgundy. Not a complex one, but quite solid for the price. Elegant, finessed, balanced – not a hair out of place here. Fresh, not oaky, with lemons, lemongrass and just a touch of nuttiness. Integrated acidity. Drinks well. A complete wine. I could drink this every day. Very good, 87 points. Drink now (and probably in 2025 the latest). Considering the genre, it’s good value for 13€ (or 14,86 £ in the UK), stockist is vinatis.com / vinatis.co.uk.
