Presentation
Located in the center of the village of Fuissé, in the Mâconnais region, Domaine Romanin has seen five generations of winegrowers. In 1998, Denis Vervier, after studying at the Lycée Viticole de Macon-Davayé, took over the management of the family estate. Today, the estate covers 11.5 ha of vines (Pouilly-Fuissé, Mâcon Fuissé, Mâcon Solutré), all of which are cultivated using integrated farming methods, with all plots under grass. The clay-limestone soil favors harmonious development of the chardonnay grape variety's aromas, with both fruity and floral nuances. 50% of the harvest is aged in French oak barrels to produce fine, fragrant white wines.
