Supple and silky, this superb Pouilly-Fuissé reveals itself. In an unparalleled classic style, it is a bright and precise white wine with very expressive fruitiness. A ripe Chardonnay combining freshness and minerality, with floral and chalky notes. The palate is refined and chiseled, a beautiful entry-level wine, sapid and mouthwatering. Ideal as an aperitif.

About the estate:
The Parinet family, owners of Château du Moulin-à-Vent, acquired this 4.2-hectare estate in the village of Pouilly in 2016. Management, from the vineyard to the winemaking, has been entrusted to Brice Laffond, who is already in charge of their property in Beaujolais. Their vineyard consists mainly of old vines, cultivated organically without certification. The first vintages suggest that this is one of the leading estates of tomorrow, the emergence of a new and serious competitor in the Mâconnais region. The 2017 vintages were featured in the previous edition of our guide alongside the wines of Château du Moulin-à-Vent. Vers Cras, Chailloux, and Bouthières will logically be among the future premier crus of Pouilly-Fuissé. The 2018 vintages continue the upward trend in quality at this young estate, beautifully illustrating their terroirs with well-adapted aging.
