Pouilly-Fuissé "Terroir de Vergisson" 2006, Roger Lassarat

For those of you who have ventured down to the Mâconnais you will find a tremendous landscape of deep rolling hills with limestone cliffs. The most impressive are the rocks of Vergisson and Solutré. This Pouilly, from the Vergisson terroir, captures the essence of this region: lovely balance, fresh stone fruits, subtle, white peach and ripe pear aromas. This wine will age gracefully like the English ballerina Darcy Bussell. Vinification was 2/3 oak (not all new) and 1/3 in stainless steel cuves which preserves the fruit flavours.
