Georges Burrier
Georges Burrier works the limestone-rich soils of Mâconnais, the southern reach of Burgundy where Chardonnay thrives in continental conditions. The winery's Pouilly-Fuissé, made from Chardonnay grown in this prestigious appellation, represents the region's mineral precision and age-worthiness. A step down in formality but no less characteristic, the Mâcon-Villages offering provides accessible entry to the same varietal expression. The Domaine de Beauregard Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru Les Vignes Blanches shifts to Pinot Noir, a less common but intriguing choice for the appellation's upper tier. Wine Spectator has rated these releases. The portfolio reflects Mâconnais's dual identity: a source of serious, structured whites and occasional ventures into red complexity.
