Barraud Pouilly Fuisse En France 750ml

Discover the Barraud Pouilly Fuissé En France 2019, a standout white from Burgundy’s Maconnais region. Crafted in the hamlet of Vergisson, where high-altitude vineyards yield some of the area’s most compelling expressions, this wine carries forward a legacy that began in 1905. Jean-Marie Barraud, starting as a sharecropper, acquired his first vineyard plots in 1912, laying the foundation for what would become Domaine Daniel et Julien Barraud.

By the late 1930s, the second generation shifted to estate bottling, marking a milestone with the debut of wines from the esteemed Les Crays vineyard in 1947. As the 1970s unfolded, Maconnais whites began capturing attention worldwide for their exceptional quality relative to more renowned Burgundy appellations. Today, fourth-generation winemaker Daniel Barraud and his wife Martine uphold this tradition, joined by their son Julien since 2006. “Daniel Barraud is without question one of the finest growers in all of the Maconnais and there is a credible argument to be made that his remarkable consistency vaults him right to the very top of the list,” notes Alan Meadows of Burghound.

This 2019 Pouilly-Fuissé En France opens with inviting scents of pear and citrus oil, laced with subtle notes of buttered toast and warm biscuits. On the palate, it delivers a medium to full body, rich and multidimensional, with a plush, indulgent texture. A generous heart of ripe fruit meets vibrant, juicy acidity, creating harmony that lingers.

From Vergisson’s premier organic producers, this white Burgundy embodies precision and depth. Ideal for those seeking a sophisticated sipper that pairs effortlessly with seafood or creamy dishes, it offers a window into one of France’s most respected family domains. Elevate your collection with this precise expression of terroir-driven excellence.
