Pouilly Fuissé Cuvée Françoise Poisard 2020
Southern-side of the Hospices. Generous and accessible.
Tasting notes
Clear yellow robe with honey tones. Citrusy nose with yellow stone fruits and hint of linden. Fine and enjoyable mouth with good amplitude. A pleasure-driven wine true to its beautiful origins from the Mâconnais in South Burgundy.
Wine & food pairings - cellaring potential
Enjoy on its own at the aperitif, with a few toasts of smoked salmon or dices of mountain cheese (comté). A spinach salad with chopped walnut, seabass filet or dry goat cheese will be a perfect match!
History
The Domaine acquired these vineyards in 1994 and 2012 thanks to Françoise Poisard’s bequest. The vines are located in Chaintré to the south of the appellation, the majority being 35 to 90 years old. There are 5 plots: Les Plessys gives round and powerful wines, while Les Robées and Les Chevrières give wines of perfumed fruitiness with considerable minerality. La Chatière and Haut de Savy are more richly structured.
