Info about the wine
Our property of about 0.50 hectares is located on the southern slope of the Roche de Solutré at an altitude of about 300 meters. The view is magnificent and the clay-limestone soils here are particularly red. With these small grapes, we can fully exploit the potential of this terroir, which is probably classified as 1er Cru.
Colour
Medium bright golden yellow.
Nose
Der 2017er Pouilly-Fuissé Climat “Au Vignerais” wirkt sehr kompakt in der Nase. Viel kühle Mineralität von Muschelschalen, Meersalz, Jod und Meeresbrise trifft auf Toast, etwas Butter, Feuerstein und animierende Zündholznoten. Die feine Frucht eröffnet sich uns erst mit dem nötigen Sauerstoff – also ab in die Karaffe mit dem feinen Tropfen.
Palate
Fresh fruit of grapefruit, apple and especially citrus enlivens the palate. A stringent mineral vein runs across the tongue, revealing a perfect interplay of fruit, saltiness and acidity. Despite its open nature, it still hides a lot in itself due to its youthfulness and will improve over the next few years. Those who already want to enjoy it at the moment would do well to fall back on purist partners.
Recommendation
Enjoy decanted, not too cold from a large glass.
