Domaine Sébastien Giroux - Pouilly-Fuissé 2021
90/100
Tim Atkin
"A rising star in Pouilly-Fuissé"
A very nice Pouilly-Fuissé with an enticing nose of white flowers, citrus, and ginger. The palate is fresh and expressive with subtle notes of nuts (hazelnut). The salty, mouthwatering finish invites further tasting. The Giroux estate is one of the rising stars of the Mâconnais region, one to watch closely!

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2022 guide) 2 stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
Sébastien Giroux settled in 2009 on the family estate known as Yves Giroux & fils, halfway between Loché and Fuissé, after several years in the world of motor racing. A member of the Artisans Vignerons association, he quickly earned the respectful attention of his colleagues. The seven hectares of the estate are farmed organically without certification, with perfectionism and modesty. The wines are developing greater personality and expression of their terroir.

Rated estate (2021 guide) Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Robert Parker - The Wine Advocate)
About the estate:
Sébastien Giroux, brother of Olivier Giroux of Clos des Rocs, took over the management of this six-hectare estate in 2009 after an internship with the Bret brothers. The grapes are harvested by hand, followed by gentle pressing and aging in barrels and vats, depending on the cuvée. The wines are consistently supple, pure, and charming.
