CH FUISSE SAINT VERAN 2022

Since 1604, Château Fuissé has been a cornerstone of Burgundian winemaking, stewarded by five generations of the Vincent family who have consistently expanded both their holdings and reputation. Now under Antoine Vincent s leadership, the estate has established itself as a quality benchmark in the Mâconnais region, producing wines that rival prestigious appellations like Puligny-Montrachet. The château s most distinguished vineyards - Les Brûlés, Les Combettes, and Le Clos - showcase distinctive terroirs through specific cuvées, with Les Brûlés and Le Clos currently under consideration for the region s first-ever premier cru designation. Beyond these estate bottlings, the family extends their expertise to a series of quality-focused wines from the broader Mâcon region under their Vincent Signature label, maintaining the same exacting standards across their entire portfolio. This Saint-Véran showcases its northern appellation terroir through a firm, structured palate built on limestone and clay soils adjacent to Pouilly-Fuissé. The 100% Chardonnay wine offers bright citrus notes balanced with subtle peach undertones, creating an approachable yet well-defined expression. At 13% alcohol, it demonstrates the elegant restraint typical of the region, made with sustainable practices under Antoine Vincent s direction.
