Domaine des Comtes Lafon 2008 Mâcon Milly-Lamartine Clos du Four Chardonnay (Mâcon-Villages)
- Online Exclusive
A structured wine, the weight and severe mineral character showing through richness. White peaches balance the acidity and a smoky layer from wood. It is drinkable now, but really worth aging a year.

Guillemot-Michel 2003 Quintaine Chardonnay (Mâcon-Villages)
- Editors' Choice
- $30
Thanks to the vintage, this is showing more fat than usual, yet still retains a gorgeous sense of balance. Orange and mineral flavors dance on the palate, accompanied by hints of apple, pineapple and lime. From a biodynamic producer, with no added yeasts, no chaptalization and no wood aging. Imported by Kysela Père et Fils.

Domaine des Comtes Lafon 2008 Mâcon Buissières Le Monsard Chardonnay (Mâcon-Villages)
- Online Exclusive
Ripe fruit in the mouth, with a fine layer of green plums, apricots and balancing acidity. An open wine, generous in texture and weight, ready to drink in the next few months.

Domaine des Comtes Lafon 2008 Mâcon-Chardonnay Clos de la Crochette Chardonnay (Mâcon-Villages)

From a walled clos in the village of Chardonnay, this is a rich wine, full of creamy caramel-tinged fruit, ripe and spicy, beautifully soft and opulent.

Domaine Guillemot-Michel 2008 Quintaine Chardonnay (Mâcon-Villages)

This 16–acre estate is run biodynamically, producing intensely flavored, honeyed, ripe wines. This is succulent from ripe fruit, with the acidity bright and vivid, finishing with sweet pineapple and apricot flavors.

Domaine Pascal et Mireille Renaud 2007 Chardonnay (Mâcon-Villages)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
The wood aging gives this wine a smooth, velvet texture, the toast lying easily over the fresh fruit that is hallmark of Renaud wines. It is finely balanced, a lively wine that has been rounded out well by the wood.

Domaine des Comtes Lafon 2008 Uchizy-les-Maranches Chardonnay (Mâcon-Villages)
Very soft fruit, with lovely ripe flavors, this white-fruited wine brings delicious white pear flavors highlighted by citrus flashes. Already very attractive.

Guillemot-Michel 2002 Quintaine Chardonnay (Mâcon-Villages)
- $30
Tasted at a closed stage in its evolution, the fruit was very much quiescent, showing merely hints of peach and citrus. More mineral than the richer 2003, with a long, mineral-and-grapefruit finish. Drink 2008–2015, maybe longer. A 1986 tasted at the domaine late in 2004 was still delicious (90 points). Imported by Kysela Père et Fils.
