Dominique Cornin Pouilly-Fuissé Les Chevriéres 1er Cru 2022

Dominique Cornin’s Pouilly-Fuissé Les Chevrières 1er Cru 2022 is a striking expression of Chardonnay from one of the most exciting sites in southern Burgundy. It combines generous fruit, precision, and a distinctly mineral edge, offering both immediate appeal and the kind of depth collectors look for in serious white Burgundy.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a bright, refined presence with a polished, luminous character. The nose opens with white peach, pear, and citrus, lifted by notes of wet stone and flint that underline its terroir-driven profile. On the palate, the wine balances richness and freshness beautifully. The chalky mineral core supports concentrated fruit and vibrant acidity, leading to a juicy, almost saline finish. It has the structure to age gracefully and gain additional complexity over the coming years.

Production
Les Chevrières comes from a small 0.75-hectare parcel in Chaintré, planted in 1963, on limestone-rich soils with iron-bearing clay over a high limestone base. The grapes are hand-harvested, then undergo spontaneous fermentation in 600-liter Stockinger demi-muids, followed by 12 months sur lie in oak and a further year in stainless steel before bottling, with no fining or filtration.

Food & Serving
This Chardonnay pairs wonderfully with fine seafood, roast poultry, creamy white sauces, and elegant dishes such as veal, lobster, or mushroom risotto. Serve it slightly chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, and consider decanting briefly if drinking young to let its aromatics and texture fully open up.
