Jadot's Village-Level Maconnais Classic
Maison Louis Jadot, founded in Beaune in 1859, is Burgundy's benchmark negociant-eleveur, and its Pouilly-Fuisse is the house's calling card in the Maconnais: Chardonnay from the appellation's four communes around Solutre and Vergisson, part oak-aged for texture and part held in stainless on lees for freshness. It is the village-level wine — distinct from Jadot's separate Premier Cru bottling and from Domaine Ferret, the Fuisse estate Jadot owns and bottles under its own name.

Tasting Notes
Nose: Red apple, honey and white flowers, per the house's notes. Palate: Toasted nuts and citrus over the appellation's mineral freshness. Finish: Clean and balanced.
How to Enjoy
Serve chilled with shellfish, grilled fish, goat cheese or poultry — and drink it now or over the next 5–8 years, the importer's own cellaring guidance for recent vintages.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the Premier Cru Pouilly-Fuisse? No. This is Jadot's village-level negociant bottling. Jadot also makes a separate Premier Cru Pouilly-Fuisse from the climats classified in 2020.
Is it oaked? Partly. Importer tech sheets describe about 40% fermented and aged in oak barrels and 60% in stainless steel on lees, so the oak is a seasoning, not the main event.
Where does Jadot make it? Jadot is based in Beaune and works as a negociant-eleveur across Burgundy; this wine comes from the Pouilly-Fuisse appellation in the Maconnais, at Burgundy's southern end.
