2022 Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru Le Clos, Château de Fuissé

2022 Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru Le Clos, Château de Fuissé

It’s fitting that Le Clos graduated to premier cru status in the 2020 vintage. It is a superb 2.7 hectare monopole vineyard of the domaine, sitting right outside the cellar door. It is home to many old vines, some of which were planted as far back as 1929. Indeed, the youngest vines you’ll find here are from 1984. These east-facing vines grow on three different soils - clay at the bottom, marl in the middle and limestone at the top. It’s the most serious wine in the Château de Fuissé cellar, with complex layers resulting from the patchwork of soil types and vine diversity. It spans apricot, peach, orange peel, honeysuckle and dried honey. The palate is balanced, deep and weighty. A zesty freshness with impressive persistence on the finish.
