Description
Pouilly-Fuissé La Roche 2018 from Bret Brothers is a precise and characterful Burgundy Chardonnay that brings together freshness, texture, and mineral drive in equal measure. From one of the most admired names in the Mâconnais, it reflects both the warmth of the 2018 vintage and the elegance that has made Pouilly-Fuissé a benchmark for fine white Burgundy.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright golden straw color with a subtle sheen. The nose is expressive and layered, with notes of ripe citrus, white peach, orchard fruit, and hints of hazelnut, buttered brioche, and wet stone.
On the palate, it is likely to be generous yet well-defined, balancing ripe fruit with crisp acidity and a distinct mineral line. The finish should be long and polished, with enough structure to age gracefully for several years, developing more complexity and nutty depth over time.
Production
La Roche is a well-situated site in Pouilly-Fuissé, where Burgundy’s classic Chardonnay thrives on limestone-rich soils that lend tension and mineral detail to the wine. Bret Brothers are known for careful vineyard work and low-intervention winemaking, with hand harvesting and a focused vinification approach designed to preserve the character of the vineyard and vintage.
Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roasted poultry, grilled lobster, creamy shellfish dishes, trout, and mature soft cheeses such as Brie or Comté. Serve chilled at around 10–12°C; decanting is optional but can be beneficial if the wine is served young to help open up its aromatics.
Producer
Bret Brothers is a respected Burgundy producer founded by brothers Jean-Philippe and Marc Bret, whose work has helped raise the profile of the Mâconnais and its top terroirs. Known for their commitment to expressive, terroir-driven wines and meticulous vineyard practices, they have earned a strong reputation among lovers of authentic white Burgundy.
