The Pouilly-Fuissé Vieilles Vignes by Domaine Daniel Pollier is matured in barriques, a quarter of the barrels are new, the rest is in second or third use. This wine is especially concentrated, it shows scents like hazelnuts, floral notes, white and yellow fruits, and a lovely oak influence that supports the fruit, but does not dominate it. An alternative to the rather expensive white wines of the Côte d’Or.

Pouilly Fuissé is a white wine appellation in southern Burgundy where the Chardonnay grape is grown (not to be confused with the similar sounding Pouilly Fumé appellation in the Loire Valley where the Sauvignon Blanc grape is grown).

 

Located in the region of the Mâconnais, the vineyards are quite dramatic and are grown in the same bedrock of limestone found further north in the Côte-d’Or. The escarpments of Solutré and Vergisson owe their impressive profile to the presence of hard fossil corals that have resisted erosion. The vines are planted on the slopes on hillsides that are cut into by little steep-sided streams giving the slopes an easterly or southeasterly exposure.

Elegant and charming with aromas ranging from mineral (silex), to citrus notes (lemon, grapefruit, and pineapple), white fruits (peaches), buttered brioche, and honey. The texture is round and generous, and the structure, thanks partly to the wine’s natural richness, is full of flavor. These are lovely wines to drink in the short to mid-term.

The attack on the palate is still floral and very focused on lime. The length is very good and very significant of a structure worthy of a Pouilly Fuissé of guard.
