Marcel Couturier

Marcel Couturier operates as a wine producer in the Pouilly-Loché appellation of Burgundy, France. This small appellation sits within the Mâconnais district of southern Burgundy, where Chardonnay represents the sole permitted grape variety for white wine production.

Pouilly-Loché covers just 61 hectares across the villages of Loché and Vinzelles, making it one of Burgundy's smaller appellations. The wines from this region typically express a mineral-driven character influenced by the area's limestone and clay soils. Pouilly-Loché whites generally offer more structure and aging potential compared to basic Mâcon wines, while remaining more approachable than the prestigious white Burgundies from the Côte d'Or.

Marcel Couturier focuses on Chardonnay production within this appellation, including bottlings from old vines that can contribute additional concentration and complexity to the wines. The estate's current range demonstrates the consistent quality potential of this lesser-known corner of Burgundy.
