Château Fuisse
Tête de Cuvée Pouilly-Fuisse Chardonnay
Bright lemon color with aromas of citrus, stone fruits and flinty floral notes. On the palate flavors of crisp apple, pear and lemon citrus with notes of white flowers and garden spice. Medium+ finish, vivid acidity ending with citrus and mineral spice. Nice!

Sep 5th, 2024Meyer lemon, wet stone, bright acidity. Tasted through several wines from Chateau-Fuisse. This was the best.

May 3rd, 2024Zero expectations here, and I am now on the hunt for more. Absolutely killer and (evidently) a wonderful QPR.
Didn’t know what type of profile to expect here, but I (incorrectly) assumed it would be somewhere in the middle and while pleasant enough, nothing to write home about. What I found was a wine that reminds me an awful lot of Domaine de la Bongran’s EJ Thevnet (all time favorite of mine), yet dialed back just a touch. Light gold in the glass, big aromatics of ripe peach, yellow fruits, and a dash of baking spice. Texturally is leans bigger, but the finish snaps back with great acidity. Lemon cream, golden raspberries, limestone and a vibrant finish. Whereas the Bongran has a touch of sweetness, this has more of a small perception of sweetness. Loved it.

Still one of the best values in white burgundy. Quince, cheese rind, creme fraiche.

Jun 11th, 2020Beautiful Chardonnay featuring a light gold color. Aromas and flavors of honeysuckle, golden delicious apple, white peach, nectarine and lemon/lime. Lightly Oaked. Creamy texture and perfect balance. Long and luxurious finish. Quite good. Thank You Keith S!
