This Chardonnay comes from a small appellation next to Pouilly-Fuissé and combines roundness with a clear mineral line, without resorting to oak influence. The name En Paradis refers to a specific lieu-dit within Pouilly-Vinzelles, which immediately gives the origin extra weight. What is Pouilly-Vinzelles? It is a white appellation in the Mâconnais built entirely on Chardonnay and known for wines with more breadth than a simple Bourgogne Blanc. \u003cspan data-state=\"closed\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-end=\"716\" data-start=\"693\" data-section-id=\"14jexaw\"\u003eVineyards and region\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"907\" data-start=\"718\"\u003eThe origin here is decisive for the style, precisely because Pouilly-Vinzelles is a small appellation with a distinct character within the Mâconnais. \u003cspan data-state=\"closed\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-end=\"2102\" data-start=\"909\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1153\" data-start=\"909\" data-section-id=\"a7eunn\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"934\" data-start=\"911\"\u003eLocation \/ Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pouilly-Vinzelles is located in the Mâconnais and includes the villages of Vinzelles and Loché.
