Christophe Cordier Christophe Cordier is a modernist and highly-talented winemaker. He harvests quite late, allowing the grapes to achieve maximum ripeness and sugar. His wines are often robust, muscular and high in alcohol. It is rare that a Pouilly Fuisse reaches 13% - 14% alcohol but for the top cuvee from the Cordier’s stable, they often do. Some of his wines get up to 100% new oak but from the sheer power of the wines, however, they balance out quite well and taste similar to some Premier Cru wines in the Cotes de Beaune.
