Description

The Mâconnais is Burgundy’s frontier region where the full potential of the Chardonnay grape is only just beginning to be realised. Thanks in part to a new wave of producers Pouilly-Fuissé is now at an unprecedented level of quality, increasingly expressed in individual climats that make this region so complex and fascinating. Not only has there been a strong movement away from previously overblown high-octane examples but a handful of growers are also revitalising the soils of exceptional vineyard plots scattered wide across the Mâconnais.
