Mâcon-Vergisson at its most precise. Eric Forest farms 4.8 hectares of old vines around Vergisson, including parcels on the dramatic limestone rock that gives this cuvée its name. Sur la Roche is just what it sounds like — Chardonnay grown on the bony, sun-warmed limestone outcrop above the village — and the result punches well above its Mâcon-Villages status. There's the lemon-crystal cut and chalk-dust mineral you'd expect from Forest, but with the friendly, juicy mid-palate of a great Mâconnais white: poached pear, salted almond, a whiff of orchard blossom. Forest belongs to the new wave of Mâconnais growers producing whites with Côte d'Or-level precision at very fair Mâcon prices. A weeknight ringer that can hold its own at a serious table.

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Reach for it with roast chicken, grilled trout, simply prepared shellfish, creamy chèvre, fettuccine with mushrooms, or a Salade Lyonnaise. Cocktail-hour-friendly with a bowl of marcona almonds.

Tasting Profile

Crystalline and chalky. Lemon curd, poached pear, white blossom and salted almond meet a stony, slightly saline mineral core. Bright acidity, a fleshy mid-palate, and a clean, lingering finish.
