Pouilly-Fuissé
In the heart of the Mâconnais region, where the rocks of Solutré and Vergisson dominate the landscape, the vineyards of the Pouilly-Fuissé appellation flourish on slopes sculpted by 200 million years of geological history. Here, the appellation encompasses the villages of Solutré-Pouilly, Fuissé, Vergisson and Chaintré, offering wines imbued with the strong identity of these Jurassic soils.
Situation géographique et terroir
The limestone massifs with entrochs that form the rocks of Solutré and Vergisson, spectacular inversions created from fossil corals that are highly resistant to erosion, dominate the hillsides. On their east- and south-east-facing slopes, between 200 and 300 metres above sea level, the vineyards are rooted in Jurassic clay-limestone soils mixed with stony scree, where the vines draw freshness, minerality and energy. The steep, sunny slopes promote ideal ripeness of the grapes and a pure expression of the terroir.
Vinification
Immediately after harvesting, the grapes are pressed in a pneumatic press, then we carry out static settling of the juice for 24 hours at 12°C. The must is then transferred directly to vats, where alcoholic and malolactic fermentation and ageing take place in stainless steel vats.
