Pouilly Vinzelles Quarts Millerandé° La Soufrandière - Magnum 1,5L, 2018

Pouilly-Vinzelles Quarts Millerandé from La Soufrandière is a beautifully expressive white Burgundy in magnum format, offering both immediate charm and the promise of graceful evolution.

The 2018 vintage brings ripe fruit, texture, and balance, making it especially appealing for lovers of structured Chardonnay.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this wine typically shows a bright golden hue with subtle green reflections in its youth. The nose is layered and refined, with aromas of citrus zest, white flowers, ripe orchard fruit, and gentle mineral and honeyed notes, underpinned by a discreet touch of oak if used. On the palate, it is generous yet focused, with a round, silky texture balanced by fresh acidity and a clear mineral core. Expect flavors of pear, lemon curd, stone fruit, and a subtle saline finish. In magnum, the wine will age especially well, developing more complexity and nuance over time; it should hold and evolve beautifully for several years.

Production
La Soufrandière’s Quarts Millerandé comes from the Pouilly-Vinzelles appellation in Burgundy’s Mâconnais, where limestone-rich soils and careful vineyard work help preserve freshness and purity in the Chardonnay grapes. The “Quarts” designation points to a prized parcel, and the term “Millerandé” refers to the small, uneven berries that can contribute concentration and intensity. Harvest is typically carried out by hand, with vinification aimed at expressing terroir through gentle pressing, controlled fermentation, and thoughtful maturation, often in a combination of stainless steel and oak depending on the style of the vintage.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs wonderfully with roast chicken, lobster, scallops, poultry in cream sauce, grilled fish, and fine soft cheeses such as Brie or Époisses. Serve it lightly chilled at around 10–12°C to bring out its aromatics and texture. Decanting is not essential, but a short aeration can be beneficial in its youth, especially in magnum format, to allow the wine to open fully.

Producer
La Soufrandière is a respected family estate in the Mâconnais, run by the Bret Brothers, who are known for their commitment to organic and biodynamic viticulture and for crafting precise, terroir-driven white Burgundies. The estate has earned a strong reputation for highlighting the character of individual vineyard sites in Pouilly-Vinzelles and surrounding appellations.
