Guffens’ longstanding cuvée “C C” gains an additional consonant this year, thanks to the inclusion of his holdings in Les Crays, becoming the 2018 Pouilly-Fuissé Les Trois C., a lovely wine bursting with aromas of lemon rind, wheat toast and confit citrus. On the palate, it’s medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, with good cut and concentration, concluding with a pure and mouthwatering finish. 90-92+ points, William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
Traditionally this wine (previously called Pouilly-Fuissé C.C) has been a blend of fruit from two 40- to 50-year-old parcels on the steep, chalky western slope of the Roche de Vergisson, in the La Côte and En Carmentrant vineyards (hence the ‘C.C’ tag). This year sees the addition of a third parcel, Les Crays, so now it is Les Trois C.
A touch of press wine from the Estate’s other lots of Pouilly-Fuissé brings structure, as does the fact that the wine was raised in 50% new oak.

A return to classicism, the 2020 Petit Chablis is absolutely delightful, and if you think you’re going to taste the difficulties of the vintage, you will be happily mistaken. Aromas of melon, grapefruit, kiwi, white peach, smoke and nettles. Lovely soft round palate, creamy, nutty and with hints of flint and yellow flowers. Washes over […]
Add to cart Producer: Bernard DefaixStunning bouquet, worried I might impale my nose on the glass. White and yellow flowers, mint, green apple, white peach, butter, lime and blackcurrant. Such a statement from Goisot combining vitality, weight of flesh, signature chalk and salt. Incredible complexity with some darker fruits of paw paw and apricot, dusted with fennel and rhubarb. Immense […]
Add to cart Producer: GoisotA great vintage for this wine and a classic, contemporary expression of Yarra Valley Chardonnay. Expressive and packed with energy. White peach, jasmine, nectarine, lemon zest and grapefruit. Very fresh style, but softer and not as high pitched as the single vineyards. Terrific value. Waters Wine Co Whole-bunched pressed into older French puncheons. Natural fermentation […]
Add to cart Producer: Giant StepsEvery wine from Hochkirch sits on a plane of extraordinary quality and great value. Beyond the tension, detail and sensual complexity, is a texturally beautiful, intricate and woven wine, all the threads coming together yet somehow separate. The 2021 Tarrington Vineyards Chardonnay is perfection and I defy anyone who says they don’t like Chardonnay not […]
