WHY WE LOVE THIS WINE
Up front, generous nose of tropical and ripe white fruits. The palate is suggestive of its lees contact in barrel, but only hints at this with bready flavours squeezed in around its pineapple fruit and mineral acidity.
Full and rich with a wonderful minerally acidity which makes the wine a great match with seafood particularly shell fish.
ABOUT THE WINERY
Domaine Manciat-Poncet was created by the merger of two family-owned estates: the Manciats in Charnay-lès Mâcon and the Poncet family in Vergisson, in the appellation of Pouilly-Fuissé which in 2021 gained 1er cru status.
The vines are all aged between 40 and 60 years and the wines display lovely floral notes. The Mâcon Charnay and Pouilly-Fuissé LaRoche are unoaked, whilst the Les Crays Pouilly Fuissé is aged in classic Burgundian oak barrels.
