Jessica Litaud Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru 'Sur La Roche' 2021
- 3 in stock
- Inventory on the way
A brilliant young talent crafting crystalline white Burgundies out of supposedly ‘humble’ Mâconnais terroirs, Jessica Litaud is establishing her domaine as world class with each new release.
After working with Jean-Marie Guffens and spending two vintages with Jean-François Ganevat in the Jura, Jessica returned in 2019 to take over her family’s 5.5ha of biodynamically farmed vines, including some of Pouilly-Fuissé's long-awaited 1er Cru vineyards: ‘La Marechaude’, ‘Sur La Roche’, and ‘Les Crays’.
Jessica times the harvest to ensure freshness and vibrancy, with the grapes undergoing a gentle pressing and extended elevage on lees in old 228-litre barrels. Litaud’s wines are characterised by their purity and fruit concentration, balanced by gentle oak and mineral nuances.
Fast becoming one of our most-requested allocations throughout the year, we are delighted to offer Jessica’s exceptional 2022s alongside tiny quantities of some back vintages direct from the domaine’s cellars.
