Winemaker notes

2022: This emblematic wine reflects all the diversity of Fuissé's terroir combining the roundness from clay, the delicacy from granitic soil, and the saltiness from limestone. Notes of citrus and fresh almond match perfectly with the richness of this solar vintage.

2022

Burghound 88-91: Ripe and reasonably fresh aromas are comprised by notes of essence of pear, apple and lemon rind. There is fine intensity to the attractively textured, even sleek, middleweight flavors that exhibit sneaky good length on the citrus zest-inflected finale.

Vinous 92: The 2022 Pouilly-Fuissé Les Perrières 1er Cru contains less clay and more limestone than the Clos de Jeanne that lies just a few meters below. This bouquet shows beautiful yellow fruit, walnut and light vanilla scents. It's well-defined and has more complexity than the Clos des Prouges. The palate is taut and fresh, quite lively and tensile. There's a pleasing steeliness here with a twist of sour lemon on the finish. Plenty of energy is bound up in this wine. Superb.(
