Pouilly-Fuissé Blanc "Heritage" 2018 | Wine from Domaine Thibert

The Domaine Thibert, located at the heart of the Pouilly-Fuissé appellation, is an essential reference in the Mâconnais vineyard. Heirs of a family know-how, the winemakers combine respect for the terroir with modern techniques to produce wines of great aromatic precision. The estate cultivates its vines with particular attention to the crystalline and vulcano-sedimentary terroir, giving the wines a distinctive minerality and beautiful depth.

The Pouilly-Fuissé Blanc "Heritage" 2018 is an emblematic cuvée of the estate, from old vines aged 60 years. The 2018 vintage, sunny and generous, offers perfect maturity, balanced by a subtle acidic tension. The vinification combines careful aging: 70% in oak barrels and 30% in stainless steel tanks for 10 months, with light filtration during bottling. This method preserves the purity and elegance of the fruit.

This wine displays a light and brilliant golden robe, announcing a beautiful aromatic intensity. The nose reveals fine aromas of white fruits, flowers, and a slight mineral touch. On the palate, the attack is ample and smooth, followed by a rich and precise texture. The minerality is expressed with subtlety, supported by a fine acidic tension that prolongs the finish, elegant and persistent.

The Pouilly-Fuissé Blanc "Heritage" 2018 is an excellent choice to enhance a refined aperitif. It pairs perfectly with grilled fish, shellfish, white meats in sauce, and even gourmet composed salads. Regarding cheeses, it pairs ideally with a fresh goat cheese or an aged Comté.
