Description

The vines here are from three plots of 80-year-old vines from around the village of Chaintré. The old vines give nice concentration and definition. There’s a little reduction at first, giving way to ripe peach and pear fruit and floral notes with a mineral edge. It is very refreshing in the mouth despite the density of the fruit and the overall structure. The finish is long, cool and refreshing, with a bright lime-flower note towards the end.

About this wine

Pouilly-Fuissé

Pouilly-Fuissé is the most distinguished wine appellation in the Mâconnais, making rich, full-bodied white Burgundy from Chardonnay in four communes: Chaintré, Fuissé, Solutré-Pouilly and Vergisson. There is a move afoot to consider classifying individual vineyard sites. Since arriving in the Mâconnais in 1987, Olivier and Corinne Merlin have become among the region’s most respected producers.
