The wine is rich and generous with lovely juicy fruit balanced with finely grained tannins and fresh acidity. A vibrant wine.

This 10 hectares walled parcell near a Castle of medieval origin, was the land of the Lords of Loyse until 1643, when Chartreux monks took over and cultivated chardonnay there until 1793 (French Revolution). Chardonnay vines grown here, further down slopes of Chénas appellation and only a few kilometers away from Pouilly-Fuissé, benefit from a very different terroir from the rest of Southern Burgundy : alluvial soil lying on a granite bedrock, giving its wines a fruiter character.

Clos de Loyse is vinified for one half in stainless steel tanks and for 50% like its great northern cousins, in oak barrels. The wine is put in oak burgundy barrels right in the middle of its alcoholic fermentation to remain protected from oxidation.
