Château Fuissé
Five Generations of Winemaking
Boasting five generations of family winemaking history, Chateau Fuissé is one of the most historic estates in the Mâconnais region of southern Burgundy. Dating back to 1604, the estate was purchased by the Vincent family in the mid-19th century, with Antoine Vincent now in charge in the cellar.
With about 40ha of vineyards spread across more than 100 small plots (23ha of which are in the appellation of Pouilly-Fuissé; the rest in Saint-Veran, Mâcon-Villages, Mâcon-Fuissé and Bourgogne Blanc), Chateau Fuissé has an enviable mosaic of terroirs and blending components to draw upon, resulting in nuanced, complex Chardonnay wines that can rival those produced in the more illustrious appellations further north.
Chateau Fuissé’s vineyard holdings in the celebrated climats of Les Brûlés, Les Combettes Le Clos (since 2020 designated Premier Cru) are bottled as top-end, single-site cuvées which showcase their unique terroir, but across the portfolio Chateau Fuissé offers an excellent quality-to-price ratio for those in search of fine Chardonnay that does not break the bank.
