VDF White "Macabeu" 2023 | Wine from Domaine Dominique Derain
Located in Saint-Aubin, in Côte d'Or, the Domaine Dominique Derain is a true reference in the world of natural wine.

Today, his wines are prized around the world, embodying the richness and authenticity of Burgundy and beyond.
The VDF White "Macabeu" 2023 is a rare and vibrant cuvée, made from the Macabeu grape, carefully cultivated with respect for nature. This white wine beautifully expresses Dominique Derain's philosophy: minimalism in the cellar and showcasing the grape. The low-intervention winemaking allows the Macabeu to reveal its full complexity and freshness. This natural wine, crafted with a minimal dose of sulfur only if necessary, reflects the energy and passion of the winemaker.
To the eye, the VDF White "Macabeu" 2023 features a clear and bright robe with golden reflections. On the nose, it unveils a complex bouquet with notes of ripe white fruits, citrus, and a subtle floral touch. On the palate, vivacity dominates, supported by a beautiful minerality and delicate flavors of peach and pear. The finish is long, marked by an elegant salinity that invites a second sip.
This natural wine pairs ideally with seafood dishes like scallop carpaccio or fine oysters. It will also enhance soft cheeses like a slightly ripened camembert. For a bolder pairing, serve it with a vegetable tagine or a fish ceviche. Its freshness and vivacity will highlight a light and inventive cuisine.
This VDF White "Macabeu" 2023 embodies the art of natural winemaking, where each bottle tells a story, that of its terroir and its winemaker.
