Saumaize Michelin Pouilly Fusse Premier Cru La Marechaude is made from 100 percent Chardonnay.
A beautiful Pouilly-Fuisse from "La Marechaude" parcel that Saumaize-Michelin acquired in 2013. Planted on clay and limestone slopes and hand harvested, this Chardonnay offers fresh and elegant notes of white flowers, crisp, citrus and exotic fruits. Powerful and mineral on the palate with a fantastic balance, finesse and freshness. The exceptional terroir brings minerality and juicy flavors of stone fruits, peach and melon supported by subtle toasty notes.
It is now a Premier Cru.

Intense ruby red in color. Hints of ripe red fruits, cocoa, tobacco and sweet spices on the nose. Complex, velvety and persistent on the palate.
Hand harvested. The bunches are set on racks to dry for 6 weeks. 20 days of skin contact maceration to extract color without bringing too much tannins. No oak, only stainless steel aging to preserve the fruit character.
