Appellation : Burgundy , AOC Pouilly Fuissé, Premier Cru

Variety : 100% Chardonnay

Volume : 750 ml

Vine: 70 years

Aging : 15 months (70% stainless tank +30% oak barrel)+24 months in bottle

Tasting Note :

This grows at a parcel of 70-year-old vines in deep clay soils along with shale. It's clean and densely concentrated, a little severe in its mineral acidity at first, before that minerality opens to flintiness and the racy fruit gains juiciness with air. Less than a third of this wine ages in oak barrels, subtly pointing up the wine's smokiness. It would be delicious with a delicate dish, like Dover sole, in a buttery sauce.
