Pouilly-Fuissé

The terroir
Parcel

Chardonnay
Our know-how
From vineyard to cellar
Winemaking
Once hand-harvested, the grapes are pressed and placed in demi-muids for vinification. The wine is aged for 8 to 12 months in demi-muids that have already held two wines, with regular bâtonnage to stir the lees back into suspension.
