Information
Mâconnais is the more southern sub-region of Burgundy. The Pouilly-Fuissé AOC (800 ha, including 194 ha of Premiers Crus) is situated where the contours become more marked, around the famous rocky cliffs of Vergisson and Solutré-Pouilly and the two other villages of Fuissé and Chaintré. The vineyards cover steep sloping cirques, mainly facing East and South-East, on which the soils are a mixture of clay and chalk from the Jurassic era, from 200 to 400 meters altitude.
The Premier Cru ‘LES MÉNÉTRIÈRES’, is one the 22 Premiers Crus of Pouilly-Fuissé. It is located on the steep slope looking upon the village of Fuissé, facing East, at 270-310 m of altitude, on shallow soils made of residual brown clay on calcareous marls.
