Château de Fuissé is a historic family-owned estate located in the village of Fuissé in southern Burgundy, within the Mâconnais, and is widely regarded as one of the benchmark producers of Pouilly-Fuissé. Owned by the Vincent family since 1862 and now run by the fifth generation, the estate combines long-standing tradition with a precise, terroir-focused approach.

Its vineyards span around 40 hectares across multiple parcels, allowing for detailed site expression and careful selection in winemaking, with Chardonnay as the dominant grape variety. The soils - primarily limestone and clay with some granitic influence - contribute to wines that balance richness with freshness and a distinct mineral character.

The style is defined by clarity and structure, with aromas of citrus, apple, and stone fruit layered with subtle notes of hazelnut and light toast from measured oak aging. On the palate, the wines are rounded yet focused, supported by vibrant acidity and a persistent mineral backbone.

Château de Fuissé’s approach results in wines that are both approachable and age-worthy, offering a refined interpretation of modern Pouilly-Fuissé while remaining deeply rooted in Burgundian tradition.
