The estate in Solutré Pouilly grows its vines at the foot of the fascinating Roche de Solutré, with the Roche de Vergisson in the background. The soils are chalky and mineral. The style here is very “solutréen”: freshness, mineral edge and tautness are the key words.

Domaine des 3 Tilleuls
Domaine des Trois Tilleuls has been in the family since the 1930s. It was founded by the grandfather of Sylvie Bouchacourt, who left it to her son, who left it to his daughter in 1987.
In details
Area • 5.50 hectares
Grape variety • Chardonnay
Appellations • 4 hectares in Pouilly-Fuissé AOP, 1.5 hectares in Mâcon Solutré AOP
Distinguishing features • At the estate, the vatting room is built into the hillside, and all the winemaking machines use gravity. No pumps are used at all. By reducing handling and interference to a minimum, the integrity of the grapes is preserved.
The philosophy of Domaine des Trois Tilleuls is based on respect for traditions and leaving the vines up to their own devices. Within this logic, the vines are traditionally grown with partial grassing for ground labour.

Vieille Vigne, mineral and elegantly woody. The immediate impression is soft, with aromas of hazelnut and toast. It is a full and round wine, with a mellow woodiness, good length and a mineral finish revealed by a hint of vanilla.
