Sebastien Giroux, Pouilly Fuissé, Burgundy

REGION: Fuissé, Burgundy, France

VARIETIES: Chardonnay

VITICULTURE: Organic

YEAR: 2020

ABV: 13%

INFO: This cuvée is a blend of two climats—"Vers la Croix" and "Les Travers"—both located in the commune of Fuissé at an altitude of 300 meters, with an east-facing exposure. The soils here are predominantly clay, relatively deep, and contain little limestone, contributing to the richness and structure of the wines. The vines average 45 years in age.

Fermentation with indigenous yeasts at low temperatures to preserve freshness and aromatic purity. The wine is aged for 11 months on fine lees, with half matured in 400-litre barrels and the other half in stainless steel vats. Malolactic fermentation is completed to enhance texture and complexity. A light filtration is applied at bottling, which takes place in early September, just before the start of the next harvest.

A textbook flinty white Burgundy—bright citrus layered with grapefruit, white peach, and a hint of millefeuille pastry. Mineral-driven, refined, and elegant with cool-climate freshness.
