Pouilly Vinzelles Climat "les Longeays" La Soufrandière Domaine Bret Brothers, 2022

Pouilly-Vinzelles Climat "Les Longeays" from Domaine Bret Brothers is a refined Chardonnay that captures the precision and mineral drive of southern Burgundy. Sourced from a distinct climat in Pouilly-Vinzelles, it offers a more terroir-focused expression of white Burgundy, combining purity, tension, and understated richness.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this 2022 Chardonnay typically shows a bright pale gold color with luminous reflections. The nose is elegant and layered, often revealing citrus zest, white flowers, ripe orchard fruit, and a subtle nutty or chalky undertone that speaks to its Burgundian origin. On the palate, it is usually crisp and well-defined, with fine acidity framing notes of lemon, pear, stone fruit, and a saline mineral edge. The finish tends to be long and precise, with enough concentration to suggest several years of graceful development in bottle.

Production
Les Longeays is a climat within Pouilly-Vinzelles, an appellation known for Chardonnay grown on limestone and clay soils that encourage freshness and minerality. Domaine Bret Brothers is known for working carefully with terroir-driven parcels and vinifying with a restrained hand to preserve site expression. The 2022 vintage likely reflects thoughtful harvesting at optimal ripeness and a cellar approach aimed at balance and clarity.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with grilled or roasted white fish, shellfish, poultry in creamy sauces, and fine goat cheese. Serve it chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, and decanting is generally unnecessary, though a short aeration can help if opened young.

Producer
