Vincent Girardin Pouilly-Fuisse Vieilles Vignes 2021
Vincent Girardin Pouilly-Fuisse Vieilles Vignes 2021
A rare chance to savour the exquisite Pouilly Fuisse Vieilles Vignes 2021 from Burgundy great, Vincent Girardin. 2021 was a lovely but hugely challenging vintage in Burgundy. The little wine that was made offers a delicious combination of freshness, elegance, and harmony. The Vincent Girardin Pouilly Fuisse Vieilles Vignes typifies this, offering mouth-watering citrus, green apple and white peach fruit that’s given richness and depth by barrel fermentation. Sublime now, it will continue to develop over the coming decade. Buy this now while you still can!

Taste
Winemakers tasting note: A delicate and distinguished wine, green-gold in colour. The local soils favour harmonious development of the Chardonnay aromas with notes of hazelnut, toasted almond and mineral notes.
About the Producer
In May 2012, Vincent Girardin sold his business to Jean-Pierre Nié, the owner of Compagnie des Vins d’Autrefois in Beaune. Jean-Pierre, very sensibly, took the decision not only to retain Eric Germain (head winemaker) and Marco Caschera (sales and exports) but to make them substantial shareholders in the business.
As far as we are concerned, nothing has changed. They continue to work with the highest quality raw materials and Eric Germain continues to make the wines, as he has done for over fifteen years. Indeed, now that Eric is entirely free from other constraints, we have noticed the wines’ gain in precision over the last few vintages! There is no bâtonnage and extended maturation in barrel, giving the white wines greater tension, elegance, energy and purity.
