Bouteille Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru Les Vignes Blanches

Great Wine from Bourgogne

A very well known vineyard plot in the village of Fuissé, classified as Premier Cru.
It faces due east on the mid-slopes of ‘Chouin’ limestone.
This is a rich and mineral wine with a very long finish. Subtlety and finesse characterize this "feminine wine" which shows great class.
