Every stage of vineyard management is done by hand, from pruning to harvesting, with cover crops, compost, and biodiversity measures central to his approach. In the cellar, Denogent relies on spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, ageing in stainless steel or neutral oak depending on the parcel, and minimal sulphur use, aiming to let each terroir’s character express itself fully.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"562\" data-end=\"1132\"\u003eLa Croix 2022 comes from a steep, south-facing parcel with limestone-rich soils. The vintage was warm and dry, encouraging early ripening, with cool nights preserving aromatic freshness. Grapes were hand-harvested, gently pressed, and fermented spontaneously in stainless steel. The wine spent 18 months on fine lees with minimal sulphur, developing texture while maintaining clarity. It shows white orchard fruits, lemon zest, subtle floral notes, and a lifted stony minerality. The palate is precise and linear, with bright acidity and a long, terroir-driven finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eOrigin \u003cstrong\u003eMâcon, Burgundy, France\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eGrapes \u003cstrong\u003eChardonnay\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eVintage \u003cstrong\u003e2022\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eAlcohol \u003cstrong\u003e13%\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eStyle \u003cstrong\u003eFresh, precise, mineral, vibrant\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eBottle size \u003cstrong\u003e75cl\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eWinemaking \u003cstrong\u003eHand harvested; spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts; aged on fine lees; minimal sulphur; unfined and unfiltered; low intervention\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eNotes \u003cstrong\u003eOrganic, low intervention, minimal sulphur, natural\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Robert Denogent","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55506476827000,"sku":"POUILLYCRO-22-RDE-WHI","price":54.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0040\/6070\/8993\/files\/Denogent_La_Croix.png?v=1774002576","url":"https:\/\/sipwines.shop\/products\/pouilly-fuisse-la-croix-robert-denogent-2022","provider":"SipWines Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
