Burrier Chateau de Beauregard Pouilly-Fuisse 1998

The Burriers have been a prominent winegrowing family in southern Burgundy since the 15th Century and have owned the Chateau de Beauregard in Pouilly-Fuissé for six generations. Frédéric-Marc Burrier is the current family member in charge of the chateau, as well as running a small négociant business under the name of his grandfather, Joseph Burrier. As the occasional president of the local winegrower’s association, Frédéric has been one of the leading advocates for classifying the Pouilly-Fuissé region’s best climats as premier crus. Frédéric has been focused on identifying the best single-vineyard sites since the mid-1990s and more than a dozen different Pouilly-Fuissés are produced today, along with wines from Macon, St-Véran, Fleurie, and Moulin-à-Vent.
