The 2016 Jules Desjourneys Pouilly-Loché is a high-quality French white wine crafted from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Pouilly-Loché sub-zone of Burgundy. This vintage from Fabien Duperray's Domaine Jules Desjourneys is part of a remarkable set of whites from the Mâconnais. The nose offers an intense and complex bouquet with notes of citrus, peach, wild flowers, honey, lemon, orange peel, butter, grapefruit, and cream. On the palate, it's described as surprisingly fresh and light, with a mineral note, tight, citric, and precise yet nicely ripe fruit. Some tasters also find wet granite, a bit of steeliness, and crisp green apple. The wine undergoes fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and is matured in French oak barrels for 2-3 months, imparting a toasty, vanilla note. 【 A remarkable set of wines, redefining the sense of what the Mâconnais is capable of 】. This wine is ideal for enjoying on hot summer days or as an aperitif. It's also suitable for a casual gathering with friends or a celebratory brunch. Food pairings include fish dishes, particularly fat fish or pork. Its light structure and balanced acidity make it versatile for various lighter meals.
