Tasting note
Our Pouilly Fumé wine has a lightly liquorice nose with a peach flowers nose. The mouth reconfirm the citrus aroma and the peach aroma characteristic of Sauvignon Blanc. This is a wine to drink young (between 1 – 4 years) served about at 12 degrees.
Viticulture
The vines producing our Pouilly Fumé grow on Kimmeridgian marl soil (“terres blanches” or “white earth”) overlooking the Loire river. This unique location benefits from autumn fog which produces noble rot of the grapes thus yielding round and ample wines.
Vinification
Long and low temperature fermentation. Aging on the fine lees during 5 or 6 months.
Food Match
Pouilly Fumé marries well with fish, seafood, white meats and soft cheeses. Our Pouilly Fumé is also a fine companion to foie gras.
