Domaine Gonon - Pouilly-Fuissé 'Vieilles Vignes' 2024

Located in Vergisson, in the heart of Mâconnais, Domaine Jean-François Gonon perpetuates a family know-how transmitted for five generations. Settled on the estate in 1991, Jean-François Gonon now cultivates 15 hectares of vines, covering the main appellations of the region: Pouilly-Fuissé, Saint-Véran, Mâcon blanc and rouge, Bourgogne blanc and rouge. The estate takes pride in respecting the limestone soils and the natural balance of the vineyard, favoring reasoned viticulture and precise vinifications. Aging on fine lees gives the whites beautiful aromatic depth and a full mouthfeel, marked by a pronounced minerality. The estate's wines offer a pure expression of Chardonnay and Gamay, revealing all the richness of the Mâconnais terroir with remarkable freshness.

This estate is strongly committed to respecting the environment. Treatments are applied only when necessary and after careful observation. Grass is grown between the vine rows to naturally manage yields. This reduces vine vigor, helping the grapes to ripen more easily and evenly.

The terroir, dominated by the classic clay-limestone soils of Mâconnais, gives the wine its signature minerality and structure. Traditional vinification methods are meticulously employed at Domaine Gonon. Fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats preserves the wine’s freshness, while aging in oak barrels enhances its complexity without overpowering its natural mineral elegance.
