Famille Vincent Pouilly-Fuissé Marie Antoinette — Mâconnais, Burgundy 2023
Famille Vincent is the family behind Château Fuissé — one of the most celebrated and historic domaines in Pouilly-Fuissé, and the benchmark producer of the appellation. Located in the village of Fuissé in the Mâconnais, the estate has been in the Vincent family for generations and is today led by Antoine Vincent, who continues the family's commitment to expressing the full potential of Chardonnay on the distinctive limestone and clay soils of southern Burgundy. The Marie Antoinette cuvée is a tribute to Marie-Antoinette Vincent — Antoine's grandmother and a beloved figure in the family's history — crafted to be an approachable, high-quality introduction to the Château Fuissé style: elegant, mineral, and unmistakably Pouilly-Fuissé.
The color is pale yellow with hints of green. The nose offers a touch of oak alongside great finesse and minerality — white flowers, lemon, and apple scents lead into aromas of melon, kiwi, peach, and apricot. On the palate, the wine is fresh, round, and fruity with a lovely mineral backbone and a nicely balanced, long finish. Elegant and complete — a Pouilly-Fuissé that drinks well above its price.
"A touch of oak, lots of finesse and minerality with white flowers, lemon and apple scents. Fresh, round and fruity with aromas of melon, kiwi, peaches and apricot and a nice minerality. Nicely balanced and fresh with a great length." — Famille Vincent, Winemaker
