Patagonia is one of the last places you'd expect to find Chardonnay shaped by a Meursault master, and yet here we are. Mainqué is Piero Incisa della Rocchetta's partnership with Jean-Marc Roulot of Domaine Roulot in Meursault. Piero is the grandson of the Marchese who created Sassicaia. He farms organically and biodynamically. Mainqué comes from parcels on sandier ground (sand, clay and pebbles, some of them coated in limestone deposits). It's fermented in barrels, 25–30% of them new and the same ones Roulot uses back in Meursault. Malolactic goes only partway, and the wine is bottled unfiltered. If you've ever chased a bottle of Roulot, this is a fascinating look at how he thinks about Chardonnay on completely different ground.

More about Chacra

Jean Marc Roulot was at dinner at Guillaume d’Angerville’s place with their friend Piero, the founder of Argentina's culty Chacra winery. Piero mentioned, while discussing his Patagonian terroir, his desire to try making a white cuvée in Argentina.

Now, Roulot is one of the best Chardonnay growers on the planet, so he’d be a good guy to chat up about making white wines of terroir. But he doesn’t seem a likely candidate to jet off to Patagonia and start making Argentinian Chardonnay.

But Piero had found a unique terroir in Patagonia and Roulot was intrigued. Intrigued enough to propose working with him, and when Roulot visited he found, in his words, a “magical place” where “nature is so strong.” This was an opportunity to do something new: work with a friend, “not trying to make a copy of Burgundy in Argentina—totally different. Trying to produce a good Chardonnay in Argentina.”

And that’s what they’ve done. Piero’s magical terroir and Roulot’s Chardonnay touch come together to make an amazing, totally new white wine. The Chacra Mainque Chardonnay comes from three plots with sand over mineral soils with river rocks and limestone. Desert-like weather (hot days, cold nights) make ripe fruit with good acidity.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Oysters on the half shell, halibut roasted in brown butter, roast chicken with lemon and thyme, or scallops seared and finished with a little butter.

Tasting Profile

Expect a taut, restrained Chardonnay in the white Burgundy mould: lemon, green apple and white peach, with a subtle toasty, hazelnut edge from barrel fermentation. Partial malolactic typically leaves the acidity bright and the texture gently creamy rather than buttery, and it finishes dry, stony and lightly saline. Think of a leaner, fresher take on Meursault.
