Pouilly-Fuissé Premier Cru 2022
Trade Tools
France / Burgundy
Beginning with the 2020 vintage a group of vineyards of the Pouilly-Fuisse appellation were granted Premier Cru status. Jadot, as a leading producer of the region, has embraced this advance in a unique manner. This wine is composed of grapes from multiple unique sites newly elevated to Premier Cru. The resulting assemblage presents a recognition of the potential quality of these sites, which are celebrated on the front label.
Harvest Note
2022 was a hot and dry growing season which was saved by significant rain in June. This allowed the vines to withstand summer heat and drought, and led to ideal sanitary conditions and a modest yet concentrated vintage.
Tasting Note
Aromas of candied lemon and acacia flowers lead to a palate sensation of brioche and wet stones. The texture is broad and expansive while supported by bright and ripe acidity. This white wine has a finish which is quite long and complex that contributes to its amazing elegance.
