The Chardonnay grapes for this appellation can only be grown in four villages: Fuissé, Solutré-Pouilly, Vergisson and Chaintré. Vinification takes place in temperature-controlled, stainless steel tanks, followed by partial maturation in oak barrels for ten months, 20% new oak. Gold with green tints, the elegant, restrained nose shows mineral and floral notes with vegetal undertones enlivened with a touch of honey. A fine, luscious wine, with nuances of hazelnuts and grilled almonds.
