The Pouilly-Fuissé Vieilles Vigne is made from 55 year old Chardonnay vines grown on loam and limestone with clay subsoils at an altitude between 220-260 meters. All grapes are harvested manually and, after a gentle pressing, are fermented in temperature controlled vats, then matured in 40% oak barrels (20% of which are new) before blending. The wine displays a bright golden color with a great mix of fruit and oak flavors with a sharp acidity and a well defined and focused structure.
