The tiny half hectare plot was planted between 1965 and 1970 on granitic subsoil and once the fruit is in the winery fermentation and maturing on lees is undertaken in recently used and new barrels. The wine is racked in stainless steel vats just before the following harvest, and bottled a few months later without filtration. The result is a wine showing higher pitched notes include lemon curd and flowers while plenty of ripe pineapple is evident on the palate, with some classy oak notes on the long finish. (12 x 75 cl)

Chateau de Fuisse LES COMBETTES Pouilly-Fuisse Description: Les Combettes is from a small 1.8 hectare plot and is one of 3 Climats that are considered to be the stars of the Chateau, along with Les Brules and Le Clos. The result is a fine, delicate Chardonnay. The Chateau de Fuisse is located in the heart of the Maconnais vineyards in southern Burgundy. In this famous region, the Vincent family , produce wines of an exceptional quality thanks to the estate's outstanding location. Jean-Jacques Vincent, the current owner since 1966, is the worthy heir to this proud family heritage, as an agricultural engineer and oenologist, he has dedicated his life to the running of the family estate. He ensures that the authenticity of the product is constantly respected through a judicious combination of new technology and traditional methods. The majority of the estate's 30 hectares of vineyards are located in the districts of Fuisse and Pouilly , halfway up the hillsides with a south-south-easterly aspect. The argilo-calcareous soil with its variable proportions of clay and chalk give the wines both structure and elegance. Of varying ages, the vines are harvested separately and manually according to the 'climats' concerned. The Chardonnay grapes are transferred whole to the estate where they undergo slow pneumatic pressing to gently extract all the goodness of the juice. The vines are cared for using traditional methods, applying sustainable viticulture and totally organic fertilizer, thereby safeguarding the future of the plots farmed, while at the same time respecting their individual characters. The soil is always farmed in parcels in order to limit erosion and guarantee authenticity. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £299.80
