Description

Since 1983, the Dutoit family has provided M. Touton with exceptional wines from the Pouilly-Fuissé region. This is the source of some of the most sought-after white wines in Burgundy. Produced exclusively from old vine Chardonnay grapes, they tend to be slightly richer in style than wines from further north due to its warmer weather. These wines show great versatility; they can be enjoyed young and can also improve with a little time in the cellar. The wines from Pouilly-Fuissé are considered some of the best values for white Burgundy. These wines are priced to move!

Tasting notes

This old vine 100% Chardonnay from Pouilly-Fuisse in Burgundy has an inviting nose of white-fleshed fruits and honey. The palate is lively on the attack with aromas of pear and white peach. The finish is pretty and harmonious. Serve as an aperitif and also makes the perfect match for fish or seafood as well as white meat and pasta in a creamy sauce.
