Joseph de Maistre - Domaine de Reuilly - Les Fossiles blanc 2023
3*Coup de Coeur
Hachette
“Crystal-clear, vibrant, and mineral-driven: a top-tier biodynamic Reuilly!”
“Skin maceration (in the press), low-temperature fermentation with native yeasts, and understated aging in stainless steel tanks on the lees—the formula has hit the mark. The result is a Sauvignon Blanc of unashamedly indulgent richness, fully ripe, with an aroma that immediately infuses the nose with exotic fruits accented by sweet spices. The palate is equally impressive: very open, rich, with astonishing fullness of body, intensely aromatic, with a wonderfully long finish, and a subtle acidity that ensures balance. Sunshine, substance, aromas—the jury is on its feet. Lobster is a must.” (Le Guide Hachette 2026).

A surprising wine for a 2023 vintage; you can sense the biodynamic influence, but there’s almost no acidity. It’s a round, rich wine with notes of blackberry and lovely aromas of exotic fruits, especially mango. Is this a transitional phase? Tasted in December 2025

Review by Mr. NICOLAS R. Posted on 12/07/2025
I was disappointed by this tasting. It’s a pleasant wine, but nothing more. I think the Hachette Guide’s rating of 3 stars is way over the top... I’ll try a second bottle in 2026 to see if that rating holds up.
