Product information "Pouilly-Fuissé Cuvée « Hors Classe » 2020"
Grape variety : Chardonnay 100%
Origin : Village of Solutré-Pouilly.
Soil : Sedimentary rocks from the Cretaceous period, clay-limestone type
SPECIFICITY
Confidential vintage of 6 new oak barrels. Oaks from high forests with blond and medium toast.
VINIFICATION
Hand picked grapes and whole bunch pressing. The juices come from our cuvée de Vieilles Vignes. After settling, the clear juices are put into barrels for alcoholic and malolactic fermentations. The wines are then aged in barrels on fine lees. The frequency of the bâtonnage is adapted according to the characteristics of the vintage. The final blending is done about 1 month before bottling, preceded by a light filtration and fining if necessary.
TASTING NOTES
Expressing all the generosity of a very mature Chardonnay, this powerful, complex and astonishing cuvée perfectly integrates the new wood, bringing to the wine a touch of vanilla and toast: a remarkable ensemble supported by a beautiful acidity and an overripe character.
This wine should be served at 12° C with cream-based recipes, foie gras or cooked foie gras, matured comté cheese...
Just like the Great White Burgundies. To drink for pleasure!
