This small-scale Burgundian estate based in Vergisson in the heart of the Pouilly-Fuissé appellation, has about 9.5 hectares planted mainly to old-vine Chardonnay and a little Gamay. The domaine has been farmed biodynamically since 2005, with manual harvesting, low yields and separate vinification of each parcel to express terroir distinctively. Their wines — often barrel-fermented and aged on lees — has richness and volume, the faint hint of something exotic, but then there's also incredible tension, drive and energy.
In 2024 the wines from Saumaize-Michelin continue to show this commitment to site and purity; harvests from parcels like Sur la Roche and La Maréchaude reflect old vines and limestone-rich soils, giving chardonnays that combine vibrant acidity with depth and precise minerality.
What the critics say:
"A fine, complex Pouilly-Fuissé. No overblown fruit or hefty oak here. Subtle, focused and with loads of freshening acidity. Complex with just a background hint of oak adding an extra layer of interest. Has the concentration and purity to age very well."
