Pouilly Fuisse 'Clos Varambon' - 2019

The Clos Varambon includes a selection of Chardonnay vines from within their clos, ranging from 20 to 50 years old. Aged in large used-oak casks, it delivers purity and complexity while young, with aromas of white flowers and stone fruits. Clos Varambon is to be appreciated in its youth. Vinified in larger oak casks, no new oak in order to preserve the pure expression of the fruit. Aromas of white flowers and fresh stone fruits. With 6 years of ageing, the aromatic palette turns to dry fruits, beewax and spices. Fabio and Claire always release wines that are already in ideal conditions to be enjoyed.
