Meurgey-Croses

Pouilly-Fuissé Vieilles Vignes

    • Description :

      Vineyards: Appellation Village of the Mâconnais region (Saône-et-Loire), on the label this appellation may be followed by the name of the Climat of origin. Producing communes: Fuissé, Solutré-Pouilly, Vergisson, Chaintré. Total area under production: 760 hectares.
      Winemaking: This wine is fully fermented in "Burgundian" barrels of 228 liters with a moderate use of new oak not exceeding 20%. The parcels on the climats of high Pouilly and very old vines are those housed in new oak barrels because their concentration and complexity fully benefit from the contribution of wood. A longer aging, until bottling in summer, releases the expression of this great terroir.
