Get to know: Domaine Eric Forest Pouilly-Fuissé “L’Âme Forest” 2024 (En Primeur)

A serious white Burgundy wine from the heart of Pouilly-Fuissé in the Mâconnais.

Tasting Note

Domaine Eric Forest Pouilly-Fuissé “L’Âme Forest” 2024 is an elegant yet powerful white that shows real depth and authority without ever feeling heavy. Pale gold in colour with lifted aromas of ripe pear, lemon oil, white peach and a distinct flinty, saline edge that speaks clearly of its limestone soils. On the palate, this Chardonnay is medium- to full-bodied, combining concentrated stone fruit, subtle nutty richness and a precise mineral backbone. It finishes long and composed, with a gentle creaminess balanced by freshness and drive. A refined, age-worthy Pouilly-Fuissé that highlights just how impressive modern white Burgundy from the Mâconnais can be.

Top food pairings:

  • Roast guinea fowl or chicken with cream and herbs
  • Seared scallops or turbot with beurre blanc
  • Comté or other mature Alpine cheeses
Kate Says

"This is Eric Forest at full tilt – layered, thoughtful and quietly powerful. A wine to sit with, not rush, and watch unfold over the evening."

Producer Info

Domaine Eric Forest is one of the most respected producers in Pouilly-Fuissé and a leading light of the Mâconnais. From an eight-generation winegrowing family rooted beneath the fossil-rich slopes of La Roche de Vergisson, Eric trained under Jean-Marie Guffens and has built a reputation for world-class white Burgundy. His organically and biodynamically farmed vineyards, many with old vines, focus obsessively on terroir expression, with minimal intervention and low sulphur to let each site speak clearly.

  • Varieties: 100% Chardonnay
  • Old vines averaging 50 years, harvested by hand for optimal ripeness and balance
  • Gentle pressing to preserve purity and site character
  • Fermented in 300-litre oak barrels, including around 20% new oak
  • Aged for 10–15 months on lees, bottled by gravity and often unfiltered

Good to know:

  • Region: Pouilly-Fuissé, Mâconnais, Burgundy, France
  • Style: White, dry, medium- to full-bodied
  • Closure: Cork
  • Vegan: No
  • ABV: 13%

Why we love it:

This Pouilly-Fuissé white Burgundy is a brilliant example of how far the Mâconnais has come, combining concentration, mineral precision and real ageing potential. From one of the region’s most thoughtful growers, it’s an outstanding en primeur buy for lovers of serious Chardonnay.
