Domaine Cheveau Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru "Pouilly" 2021 750ml

“Pouilly” is considered *the* great premier cru of Pouilly-Fuissé, the appellation having gained approval for premier cru status of 22 vineyards starting in 2020, and Cheveau owns vines in three of its climats: “Au Buchot” (which they no longer bottle separately), “Morlay”, and “Le Clos”, the oldest of which were planted in 1946. As with all of their wines, the grapes are manually harvested and fermented with native yeast, and the wine is raised on the lees for one year in 600-liter barrels followed by a year in stainless steel tanks. “Pouilly” is the consummate Pouilly: rich but fresh, powerful and vibrant with persistent minerality.
