Château-Fuissé's Pouilly-Fuissé Tête de Cuvée is sourced from more than 40 parcels and located throughout the estate's 100-acre holdings. The personal touch of Antoine Vincent in the final blend makes this wine the representative example of the Pouilly-Fuissé appellation.

The 2021 Pouilly-Fuisse Tete de Cuvee, a blend of different plots, contains slightly more wood maturation than usual due to depleted crop. Therefore, the length of elevage was reduced. It feels just a little conservative on the nose at the moment with vanilla and nutmeg touches, more Cote d'Or than Maconnais. The palate is balanced with Clementine and citrus peel, tight and linear, perhaps just missing a bit of depth toward the finihs. I feel the growing season's challenges compromise this, but it should still repay bottle age thanks to the natural acidity.
