Louis Jadot Pouilly Fuissé Blanc 2018 - A Chardonnay full of elegance
Discover the fascination of the Louis Jadot Pouilly Fuissé Blanc 2018, a wine made from 100% Chardonnay grapes. Coming from the renowned Louis Jadot winery, this wine is a symbol of quality and finesse.
Optical and aromatic characteristics
The Louis Jadot Pouilly Fuissé presents itself in the glass in a medium straw yellow, with subtle green-gold reflections. The bouquet is a firework of the senses, dominated by citrus notes and aromas of apple and pear, which are complemented by buttery and nutty nuances.
On the palate, the wine unfolds a balanced interplay of fruity and woody notes. A hint of delicate butteriness blends harmoniously into the taste. The well-balanced acidity ensures a fresh and creamy overall impression.
The appellation and its terroir
Pouilly-Fuissé is an appellation in the southern Mâconnais and includes the steep vineyards of the villages of Fuisé, Solutré, Pouilly, Vergisson and Chaintré. The special clay and chalk soils from the Jurassic period offer ideal conditions for Chardonnay grapes.
The grapes for the Louis Jadot Pouilly Fuissé 2018 come from all four municipalities of the appellation and are carefully processed in modern presses. While the majority of the must ferments in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, a small amount matures in French oak barrels. The different batches are then blended using the traditional method.
Founded by Louis Henri Denis Jadot, the winery has a long tradition in the trade and distribution of Burgundy wines, especially on the northern European market. After the winery was sold to the US importer Rudy Kopf and his family in 1985, it has been successfully run by Pierre-Henry Gagey since 1992 and by his son since 2014.
Sustainability as a principle
The winery has been using organic farming for over 20 years and has banned synthetic fertilizers and pesticides from the vineyards. Instead, the natural soil life is activated and, through strict yield reduction, the full power of the vine flows into the grapes.
