What happens when one of the world's most popular grape varieties finds its perfect home? A great wine is born. Just like this Pouilly-Fuissé from Pierre André. A Burgundy white that is anything but ordinary. We are in the heart of the Mâconnais, where the grapes are imbued with minerality, elegance and a vibrant freshness that strikes you right in the heart. The landscape is dominated by the imposing Rocks of Solutré and Vergisson, two limestone bastions which, in addition to being prehistoric archaeological sites of great importance, offer a unique terroir. The vineyards extend over amphitheatre-shaped slopes, well exposed to the east and south, between 200 and 300 metres above sea level. This privileged location, combined with clay-limestone soil rich in Jurassic fossils, gives the grapes unrivalled concentration and balance. 100% Chardonnay, Maison Pierre André follows traditional winemaking methods. The freshly harvested grapes are immediately pressed. Alcoholic fermentation takes place at a low temperature to extract and preserve all the primary and secondary aromas of the grapes and terroir. The wine is filtered and bottled, maintaining its innate liveliness. Light golden yellow in colour, it is anything but shy on the nose. A complex bouquet, where the classic fruity notes of ripe Chardonnay blend with an intriguing hint of almond. On the palate, this Pouilly-Fuissé reveals a warm harmony. It is not only rich but also well balanced, culminating in an aromatic persistence that lingers for a long time. A full but dynamic sip, never tiring. Try it with lobster or grilled prawns, but also with a classic chicken à la bresse. Excellent with mature goat's cheeses.
