Pouilly-Fuissé Les Birbettes, Château des Rontets - 2021

From a vineyard located a few metres from the château and planted between 1910 and 1920, this great breed of Chardonnay - the estate's greatest wine - presents itself with notes of citrus fruit, white pepper and a touch of chic breeding; deep and ripe on the palate, with a tight structure and superb length. A real wine for laying down, to be decanted!

Viticulture

All the vines are cultivated organically and the soil is fully tilled. The harvest is done by hand and in crates. Birbettes comes from the slang word birbe, birbon, birbette = old. The very old vines, planted between 1910 and 1920 (!) with a density of 10,000 vines/ha, are located on the east side of Clos Varambon and behind the house.

Oenology

Fermentation and maturation on the lees take place in 228 and 400 litre barrels, with 15% new wood. The wine is racked and blended in older barrels before the next harvest, and bottled after 22 months of unfiltered ageing.

Suggestions for accompaniment

River fish in foil - Sole with beurre blanc - Pan-fried scallops - Fresh or semi-dried goats from the Mâconnais.

Domain
In the space of 25 years at Château des Rontets, Claire and Fabio Montrasi have raised this historic estate to the top of the Mâconnais! The move to organic farming is no stranger to this, nor is the restructuring of the vineyard, the château and the hours of work. Today, the estate could serve as a model for all the young winemakers in the region who want to set up shop. And the wines are crowned with success and other laudatory notes, in all the French, English and even American guides.
