Litaud’s Pouilly-Fuissé La Simplixité embodies the marriage of the fruit’s simplicity and the terroir’s complexity. It is a blend of two micro-plots of Pouilly-Fuissé Village (the same cuvée as A François in 2022). An airy profile with crisp fruit notes (fresh apricots, white peaches). We appreciate the finesse and tension of this wine, which calls for some frogs’ legs, stuffed mussels, or fried trout or smelt.

From vineyard to cellar

Pouilly-Fuissé La Simplixité is a blend of two plots:

• A 0.50-hectare plot from the Pouilly-Fuissé Aux Charmes village appellation, on cooler, damp soils with a high clay content.
• A 0.18-hectare plot, Les Croux, situated on the lower slopes of the Roche de Vergisson, facing due south with limestone soils.
