The Story Behind the Bottle
Christine Saumaize and husband Roger have recently handed the day-to-day running of this fabulous Burgundy estate to their children Vivien and Lisa. Vivien has been making the wines since 2018 and continues the meticulous approach of his father, whilst introducing some small but significant new ideas and techniques, such as the fermentation of a small part of the crop in 56-litre glass globes. Their Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru Sur la Roche comes from a 1.5 hectare, south-facing plot right in front of the winery – one of the estate’s oldest vineyards. There’s great concentration and weight yet it’s also terrifically bright and energised with juicy citrus and stone fruit. Beautiful flow and harmony.
