Pouilly-Fuissé is a renowned Chardonnay wine produced in the village of Mâconnais. The vineyards in this breathtaking landscape boast a distinct 'terroir' due to their limestone and heavy clay soils. With a golden color and green hints, this 2022 Pouilly-Fuissé offers a pleasant aroma of almonds on the nose. The well-balanced palate reveals fruity notes, particularly of exotic fruits, while the finish is refreshing. Pair it perfectly with shellfish, charcuterie, skate, and reblochon cheese.
"An instantly appealing Burgundian chardonnay that you don't have to be an expert to enjoy. Effusive nose of quince with delicate notes of candied orange peel and butterscotch. Stacks of fruit in the middle of the medium-bodied palate, then a wonderfully bright, stony finish. The excellent balance suggests this will develop well for a few years. Drink or hold."
