Henri Bonnerue - Pouilly-Fuisse Vieilles Vignes 2022
Tasting notes
From grapes grown on limestone, heavy clay from the Jurassic age, schist and sandstone. This wine blends freshness from cold fermentation in stainless steel with a oak influnce from aging in 600 liter demi-muid casks, as well as a creaminess from malolatic fermentation. Best enjoyed alongside food, especially seafood and soft cheeses such as brie.

Everything is sustainably farmed and follows organic viticultural practices. The yields are extremely limited to bring out the concentration and complexity of the grapes.
