Michel Picard Pouilly Fuisse
2008 Pouilly Fuisse
89 points, "Chalky overtones with a hint of citrus flavors. Fairly dry. Worth an extra point or two for being a great value." The Wine Connection Spring 2011


This Chardonnay exhibits apricot and white peach aromas with hints of honeysuckle and a light vanilla touch. The rich aromatic palette of this wine is revealed by its freshness.
Pairs well with pork, salads, fish, vegetables, chicken or seafood.
100% Chardonnay
Burgundy is a fairly small wine region in the central eastern part of France where they make some of the most expensive and sought-after wines in the world. The Maconnais has a mild and sunny climate. Considered the best wine of the Maconnais, Pouilly Fuisse is made up of five villages within an area of limestone hills, rich in the alkaline clay. Hand harvested grapes; the wine is barrel fermented and aged “sur lie” in stainless steel tanks with a stirring of the lies (batonnage) once a month for richness and flavor.
