Domaine de la Garenne - Pouilly-Fuissé 2018
89-91/100
Burghound
An appellation we absolutely love! An intense, complex wine on the nose, with notes of exotic fruits (pineapple, mango), peach, and sage. On the palate, it offers beautiful body and a lovely, mineral-driven finish with a fresh aftertaste. This superb white wine is sure to delight your taste buds and pairs perfectly with bouillabaisse or blue-fleshed fish (swordfish), as well as goat cheeses such as Crottin de Chavignol.

Rated Estate (2025 Guide) Selected (An estate or winery that impressed us with one or more of its wines, though we are unable to offer a general assessment of the style of its entire range)
About the estate:
The Devillard family has expanded beyond the borders of Burgundy by acquiring the Rolet estate in the Jura. In Mercurey, Château de Chamirey remains their largest Burgundian property, spanning 37 hectares, 15 of which are classified as Premier Cru. Another unique feature of the estate is its table d’hôtes restaurant in the heart of the hamlet. A skilled technical team, led by the new cellar master Carole Briffox and advised by oenologist Enrico Peyrone, is constantly striving to improve work in the vineyards, winemaking, and aging, always in pursuit of excellence. Following a particularly successful 2017 vintage, the estate has successfully captured the full potential of the 2018 vintage—its intensity as well as its finesse. A step up in our ranking could be achieved very soon.
