Premier Cru White Burgundy • 100% Chardonnay • Elegance from the Mâconnais

Overview

The Alain & Sylvaine Normand 2021 Pouilly-Fuissé "Vignerais" Premier Cru is a stunning expression of Burgundy’s southern gem, showcasing the finesse and complexity that earned Pouilly-Fuissé its long-awaited Premier Cru designation in 2020. Sourced from the Vignerais climat, one of the most highly regarded sites in the appellation, this wine reflects the Normands’ deep commitment to sustainable viticulture and artisan winemaking.

Produced from 100% Chardonnay grown on limestone-rich soils in the heart of the Mâconnais, this Premier Cru bottling is precise, mineral-driven, and beautifully structured—offering tremendous value for lovers of fine white Burgundy.

Tasting Notes

  • Aromas: Lively bouquet of white peach, lemon curd, acacia flower, and toasted hazelnut, backed by flinty minerality and subtle hints of vanilla from gentle oak aging
  • Palate: Rich yet elegant, with notes of ripe citrus, orchard fruit, crushed stone, and a whisper of cream. The texture is round but taut, balanced by vibrant acidity and a lingering mineral finish
  • Finish: Long and refined, with a stony elegance and excellent persistence

This wine shows the depth of great Chardonnay, striking a perfect balance between Burgundian classicism and southern expressiveness.
