Domaine Barraud Pouilly-Fuisse Sur La Roche 2017
A newly crowned 1er Cru Vineyard! We LOVE this Pouilly with all our hearts -- look at all the wine we tasted to make sure! World-class white Burgundy from the Mâconnais -- $39.95!!
Ideally, we’d all love to be drinking white Burgundy every night, of course, and we’ve just about made that possible today. A soaring, intense, vibrant, alive wine that will set a new standard for you!! Fun fact: Sur La Roche has just been upgraded (about 30 days ago!) to Premier Cru status, a dream come true for this often over-looked appellation. The Sur La Roche vineyard has long been recognized as a world-class producer, and now they have made it official. While not on the label this year, when it does grace the label, you can count on higher prices, so lock in this stellar deal before the prices start rising.
Located in the picturesque village of Vergisson, the Barrauds, for generations, have made fine wines that drink WAY over their price point from the high-altitude, limestone soils (farmed organically). We are VERY lucky to have snagged a small parcel of this sought-after wine (just ask a sommelier) that you need to be drinking now and over the next 5+ years. Tremendously well-priced, we might add...please don’t miss! This is our “house” fave and what we drink at home on the regular when we can get it!
ONLY 12 CASES! While it lasts!
