Product Description

Overview

Winery: Saumaize-Michelin

Domaine Saumaize Michelin Pouilly Fuisse Vignes Blanche has flavors of white peach, pear aromas; brioche nuances. Mineral, rich and full flavored and complex wine.



"The 2010 Saumaize-Michelin displays notes of buttered brioche, orange rind and lemon butter in a fresh, medium-bodied, lovely style, with just a hint of oak aging in the background. I tasted several other cuvees from this estate, and readers who want to spend a little more money should check them out too. The 2010 Pouilly-Fuisse -Pentacrine- (89 points; $43.00) is excellent. The real stunner is the 2010 Pouilly-Fuisse -Vignes Blanches,- which costs about $39.00 a bottle and which I rated 92 points. It is a sensational wine and a great Macon."

The Domaine Saumaize-Michelin Estate

This family estate is owned by Roger and Christine Saumaize-Michelin and is located in the Village of Vergisson, the best of the five villages for Pouilly-Fuisse. The estate built new cellars in 1991 and uses 10 - 25% new oak per vintage.

"Roger Saumaize, meticulous vineyardist and skilled winemaker, makes Macon whites, including four different Pouilly-Fuisses; dense and rich for the region, they behave more like great Cote de Beaunes." - Anthony Dias Blue's pocket guide to wine 2006

The Domaine Saumaize-Michelin Vineyards

This 9 hectare estate is planted to 8.5 hectares of Chardonnay and half an hectare of Gamay for Macon Rouge. The vines are 40-45 years old of age on average. All of the wines are 100% barrel fermented and 100% M-L fermentation. Roger Saumaize makes about 3,800 cases of wine per year under three different appellations: Mâcon-Villages, St Véran and Pouilly-Fuisse.
