From families of winemakers for over severn generations, Andree Tene Thibert created his own domain in 1967 of 2.5 ha, in a house dating from the 19th Century. Their two children, Sandrine and Christoph, now co-manage the vineyard and incorporated the modern land in 1991 and 1999.
The beautiful Domaine Thibert is found within "The Macon" of Saône-et-Loire, one of the four departments of Burgundy. The varied geography benefits from being at the periphery of the Massif-Central mountainous region. In the vineyard more than half the surface area is ploughed to facilitate the reintroduction of micro-organisms to the soils. Vines are an average age of 40 years, yielding between 40 to 60 hl/ha. Grape varieties grown are Chardonnay (95%) and Gamay (5%) with annual production of around 140,000 bottles. In the cellar, vinification and ageing take place in vats and barrels, of which between 10 and 15% of the barrels are renewed annually. Christophe (pictured by the conveyor) and his sister Sandrine observe the minimum filtration techniques in the wine making.
Domaine Thibert Père & Fils is now 22 hectares of which all South Mâconnais are represented. Christoph has pursued low-energy and ecologically-responsible techniques recently including innovative barrel turning rollers, foil-lined roof structures and harnessing the thermal energy of a stream running though the vineyard to provide refrigeration of the fermentation areas during the summer.
In 2005 Domaine Thibert has acquired a total of 18ha of vineyards in production and has also completed various projects including a new Winery & storage for bottles. Traditional Burgundian methods are used alongside new techniques and equipment by the family that ensures high quality in all of their wines.
The emphasis at Domaine Thibert is definitely on quality rather than quantity: they produce solely Pouilly Fuisse From chardonnay grapes, of which around 5 barrels per year are exported. The wine is fermented in a combination of stainless steel and barrique (a 225 litre barrel, originally used in Bordeaux) and then aged in a barrel.
Nicely balanced fresh, clean nose. An elegant, refined palate. Well-balanced, fairly long. The flavour builds up on the finish. Well made.

Vinification and ageing are in 100% in oak barrels. The ageing lasts between 6 and 10 months on “lie” before bottling.
Extremely fresh with green apple hints, nutmeg and dairy, closely knit crunchy crisp palate and a long creamy but quite refreshing finish.
This wine is rich and well constituted to consume young or be kept in the cellar from 4 to 5 years before drinking. The Pouilly-Fuisse is balanced and long on the palate, the average of the ageing is 7 years depending upon conditions of storage and vintage!
Our recommendation is to consume this wine with white meat, chicken or veal with cream… or fish, seafood dishes (not too spicy!)

The vinification and ageing are traditional in small oak barrels, with a crossing of new oak 5%. The alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation are slow and unfolds under the strict supervision of the temperatures. Thibert’s "Vieilles Vignes" stay 10 months on their lees.
The POUILLY-FUISSE "Vieilles Vignes" is the most rustic of the Thibert wines. In fact, it’s a very robust wine, creamy, toasty, and very aromatic with a large aptitude for further ageing.
You enjoy the best flavours and you taste the aromatic richness if you drink at temperatures from 12° to 14°. Our recommendation is to consume our POUILLY-FUISSE "Vieilles Vignes" with fish dishes a little spicy or with dishes very delicate like: crayfish, lobster, salmon, marinated seafood dishes. The 70 year-old vines have yielded an intense, mineral, aromatic wine that is lovely now but will age superbly.

Brilliant straw coloured in the glass. Expressive nose of lemon oil, peach blossom and a note of vanilla bean. Medium bodied palate is well balanced with kiwi, lime and some limestone minerality which cuts through the palate. Nice finish with tart yellow fruits and more minerals.
