Domaine Cordier Père et Fils : Pouilly-Fuissé Village "Fine Joséphine" 2022

The elegance and precision of a white wine from Burgundy

The estate

Located in the heart of the Mâconnais, the Domaine Cordier Père et Fils embodies a subtle balance between heritage and modernity. Under the impetus of Christophe Cordier, the family property perpetuates a demanding viticultural tradition, where each cuvée reflects the respect for the terroir and the precision of the gesture. "The terroir is nothing without the will of man": this philosophy guides each step of the vineyard work, in a constant quest for excellence.

Raised among the vine rows, Christophe Cordier developed a particular sensitivity to wine at a very early age, conceiving it above all as a sensory and emotional experience. His total commitment is reflected in an extreme attention to every detail, with a strong desire to magnify the fruit. Because it is in the purity of the grape that the greatness of a wine is born.

The vineyard

The estate's vineyard extends around the charming village of Fuissé. It covers 30 hectares spread over more than 100 plots, nestled in 8 Burgundian villages. This diversity of soils and exposures composes a real geological mosaic, offering the chardonnay the opportunity to reveal all the subtlety of its expressions depending on the terroir.

The wine

The "Fine Joséphine" cuvée comes from a small exceptional vineyard of 0.24 hectare located in Fuissé, in the place called Ménétrières. About 90 years old, the vines draw their richness from clay-limestone soils, giving this Pouilly-Fuissé wine a beautiful structure and a deep aromatic complexity.

Vinification and aging

The harvest, not destemmed, is gently pressed, before being barreled by gravity. The fermentations take place naturally, followed by an aging on lees for 18 months in barrels, giving the wine richness, texture and finesse.

Grape variety

This Pouilly-Fuissé Village "Fine Joséphine" 2022 is made exclusively from chardonnay.
