Dominique Cornin Pouilly-Fuissé Les Chevriéres 1er Cru 2022

Dominique Cornin’s Pouilly-Fuissé Les Chevrières 1er Cru 2022 is a striking expression of top-tier Chardonnay from Burgundy, combining power, precision, and genuine terroir character. Sourced from a tiny, prized parcel in Chaintré, it brings together ripe fruit, chalky minerality, and a distinctly elegant profile that makes it as compelling for collectors as it is for memorable dinners. Rooted in a vineyard planted in 1963, it reflects the depth and authenticity that have made Pouilly-Fuissé one of the region’s most exciting appellations.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, this wine shows a luminous, refined appearance typical of a well-made white Burgundy. The nose opens with white peach, pear, and citrus, layered with wet stone, flint, and a subtle mineral edge that adds tension and complexity. The palate is both generous and focused, balancing supple fruit with vibrant acidity and a chalky, almost saline mineral core. There is impressive concentration here, yet the wine remains agile and precise, finishing long and mouthwatering. With its structure and depth, it should age gracefully over the next several years, gaining more nuance and texture with time.

Viininvalmistus
Les Chevrières comes from a 0.75-hectare parcel high on the slope in Chaintré, where iron-rich clay rests over limestone, creating ideal conditions for Chardonnay with both richness and tension. The vineyard was planted in 1963, and the grapes are harvested by hand to preserve fruit quality and site expression. Fermentation takes place spontaneously in 600-liter Stockinger demi-muids, followed by 12 months of sur lie ageing in wooden casks and a further year resting in stainless steel before bottling, without fining or filtration.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This wine pairs beautifully with refined seafood dishes, roast poultry, creamy risotto, lobster, or dishes with mushroom and buttery sauces. Serve it at 10–12°C to best showcase its aromatic detail and textural depth. Decanting is not essential, but a short aeration can help the wine open up, especially if enjoyed young.
