The 14.5 hectare Domaine G. Saumaize (formerly Domaine des Maillettes) is now wholly run by Guillaume Saumaize follwing the recent retirement of his mother, Annie. Tending to more than forty parcels of vines spread across four Mâconnais communes (Vergisson, Davayé, Solutré and Prissé), he produces Pouilly-Fuissé and a range of other Mâcon AOC wines.

In 2018, the Saumaize family invested in a new barrel cellar, giving them much more flexibility to vinify individual parcels of grapes separately and thus express their terroir even more clearly. The Chardonnays are classically styled, with part or full vinification in oak for richness and complexity.

Domaine Guy Saumaize, Pouilly-Fuissé Grande Réserve wine is quite a rich Burgundian white that reveals finesse and balance throughout. Creamy and buttery with a lovely touch of oak that adds a slightly nutty character to this beautiful wine. Rich but restrained, there is a real elegance and sense of quality that shines right through to the end. This is a versatile white that will go beautifully with poultry or fish, salads or just as a refreshing glass on its own.
