Description

Naudin Pere Et Fils Pouilly Fuissé 2020

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Chardonnay from Pouilly Fuissé, France. Grown on clay & limestone soils

Taste Profile: Bright gold color with a few green reflections. Very frank, it elegantly reveals its aromas of white flowers and white-fleshed fruits (such as Mirabelle plum and peach), and some nuances of exotic fruits develop after opening. Fresh and fruity with quite good minerality, which gives elegance to the palate. The whole is rich and precise while still maintaining a total respect for its original terroir.

Winemaking Process: Traditional vinification accompanied by temperature and must control, settling and alcholic fermentation then the malolactic fermentation in vats. Aged for 9 months in stainless steel vats

Bright & Mineral Whites

From the limestone character of Sancerre to the green, herbaceous Sauvignon Blanc of Marlborough, this style group often shows off cut grass and wet stone. Often associated with coastal regions or limestone based terroir, these wines are characterised with crisp acidity, mineraiity, citrus tones, with a hint of grassiness

Malolactic fermentation

MLF is a process that results in reduction in acidity & the production of buttery texture & taste profile, often applied to more bodied styles of red & white wines
While not all creamy whites or rich fruity reds undergo MLF, and can adopt similar profiles from barrel ageing,
