Origin

Pouilly-Fuissé Sur La Roche is produced in the Pouilly-Fuissé appellation, located in the Mâconnais subregion of Burgundy, France. This area is renowned for its high-quality Chardonnay wines.

Variety

The wine is made exclusively from the Chardonnay grape variety, which is typical for the Pouilly-Fuissé appellation.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected. The wine undergoes fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness, followed by aging in oak barrels to develop complexity and structure. The winemaking process emphasizes balance between fruit expression and subtle oak influence.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Pale golden yellow with greenish reflections.
  • Aroma: Intense and elegant bouquet featuring notes of white flowers, citrus fruits, and hints of toasted almond and vanilla.
  • Palate: Well-balanced with a fresh acidity, flavors of ripe apple, pear, and subtle minerality. The finish is long and refined with a creamy texture.

Food pairings

  • Seafood dishes such as grilled scallops, lobster, or sole meunière.
  • White meats including roasted chicken or turkey with herbs.
  • Soft cheeses like Brie or Camembert.
  • Light pasta dishes with cream or butter-based sauces.
