Château Pouilly - Pouilly-Fuissé Cuvée 1551 2020
2*Coup de Coeur
Hachette
"A great vintage that echoes the Favorite in the 2016 vintage. A Pouilly-Fuissé unanimously appreciated for its powerful bouquet of white fruits (peach and pear), spices, and citrus fruits, as well as for its equally intense and complex palate, remarkable for its generosity, volume, balance, depth, and length. A wine with a very assertive character and impressive depth, celebrating the château's first harvest nearly five centuries ago!" (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2022)

About the estate:
Perched on Mount Pouilly, on the edge of the hamlet, this château has stood proudly since 1551 amid its 7 hectares of vineyards. At its helm since 1981, Ms. Canal du Comet aims to restore the prestige of this estate, which played a leading role in the World's Fairs between 1862 and 1912. Traditions are respected here, from the vine to the bottle (12 months of vinification, blending before bottling, long aging in bottles).
