Jean-Claude Debeaune
Pouilly-Fuissé Chardonnay
Clear light golden yellow color. Aromas of stone and tropical fruits. The palate shows peach and pineapple flavors with crispness noted. Traditional Unoaked style, this light body wine has high acidity, generous minerality and overall good structure and balance. The finish ends smooth. The 2013 was a tad better than 2012 and can get better with a few cellar years.

1 person found it helpfulAug 10th, 2016We enjoyed this wine. It was crisp and refreshing with some weight in the mid palette. It has all the elements of a good "Burgundian" style Chard. However, it does fall off a little bit in the back end with a slight mediciney taste. I must say though that I did not do a good job of pairing this wine appropriately. I am sure that it will be outstanding with a proper pairing.

Traditional Unoaked style, this light body wine has high acidity, big minerality and good balance. The finish ends smooth but lacked luster. Drink up aging will not improve. Tasting Sample.

Feb 7th, 2017Clean and crisp with medium mineral quality. Unoaked. Finish is not incredibly long. Complexity is nice - it’s worth chewing and savoring. Will buy again.

Jul 3rd, 2021Tart, a bit one dimensional. Was hoping for more minerality, ands bit more balance.
