Pouilly-Fuisse 2019

Background
Rochers is named for the famous 'Roches' or limestone cliffs of Solutre and Vergisson in Burgundy, France. Founded in 1928 on the site of a Gallo-Roman villa, one of the region's most important wine estates, the cellar of Chaintre is one of the oldest in France.

Viticulture
Yields are kept low by a combination of rigorous pruning and maintaining an average vine age of 35 to 40 years. Reserve des Rochers practices sustainable viticulture without pesticides or herbicides.

Terroir
Pouilly-Fuisse is one of the designated Crus of the Macon. Vines grow on limestone soils in the village of Chaintre.

Production
Fermentation and maturation in stainless steel vats with bottling after 12 months

Tasting Notes
An expressive nose of pear and floral scents with a touch of honey, mint, and minerality. A rich, round wine with complexity and a long finish.

Food Pairings
A wonderful accompaniment for seafood, oysters, and poultry

The minerality typical of this appellation appears strongly in this rich wine. With vanilla and spice flavors and tight citrus as well as white stone fruits, this wine is still young. It will be at its best from 2022.
