Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru
Mâconnais, Burgundy
Chardonnay | 750ml | Premier Cru
A signature Premier Cru from Maison Louis Latour, this Pouilly‑Fuissé is a blend of several top vineyards designated as Premier Cru since 2020. Grown on approximately 35-year-old Chardonnay vines rooted in limestone and heavy clay soils, it captures the depth and regional clarity of the Mâconnais
The grapes are hand-harvested and then undergo traditional fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, with complete malolactic conversion. The wine is aged for 8–10 months, with 10–15% aged in medium‑toasted French oak barrels from Louis Latour’s cooperage, the balance in steel.
