Description
WINEMAKER: Jessica Litaud
REGION: Burgundy, FR
VARIETY: Chardonnay
VITICULTURE: Organic
This small 5 hectare estate in the Mâconnais is going to make some waves; Jessica made her first vintage in 2019 but her family are established vignerons in the famous part of Pouilly-Fuissé, Vergisson. Jessica is, like all the producers we work with, fastidious about all the details and the grapes are harvested by hand and into 7 kg boxes and the bunches are refrigerated for at least 12 hours in a cold room before pressing. After being chilled to 4 degrees, the grapes are very slowly pressed before fermentation in barrel and elevage of about 10 months. Finesse and elegance the result. Having worked with Jean-François Ganevat together with the experience that her family brings, this is a star to watch very closely! She has taken over just 2ha of the family estate; her father Jean-Jacques was also a vigneron - she has immediately started organic farming with the knowledge that this cuts yields but catapults quality.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
