Background
A Pouilly Fuissé producer of high repute, this wine is from their vineyards in nearby Saint Veran. A family estate established in 1933 and now with the 5th generation in charge, this estate is going from strength to strength and a favourite in fine dining restaurants in France and beyond.
Tasting notes
It develops some lovely aromas of white flowers and white flesh peaches. With ageing, it evolves into tones of hazlenut, honey and flint.
Winemaking
The hand-picked grapes come from average 50 year old vines. A combination of traditional and modern vinification with partial ageing in oak barrels.
Food pairings
Ideal with roast veal, chicken with cream sauce, white meat in general and fish with white butter sauce.
