- A classic Pouilly Fume showing notes of exotic fruits, peach and apricot, with citrus and spicy undertones. The palate is powerful, and refreshing, and delivers a deliciously long, flinty finish.
A pneumatic press very gently pressed the grapes to avoid any stalky flavours. The juice was left to settle so it was as clear as possible, racked, and then fermented in temperature-controlled tanks with neutral yeasts. The wine was aged for six months on its lees before being bottled.

Winery | The vineyard is situated in the heart of the Pouilly Fume appellation on the right bank of the Loire River. The vines are trained according to the Guyot method. The vineyard is carefully cultivated throughout the year using organic methods and is in conversion to organic certification. Pesticides and fertilisers are not used, instead tilling of the soil reduces the need for weed killers, and certain parcels are left with grass cover to limit the vines' vigour. Deleting takes place at the end of June. The soil in the vineyard is made up of Kimmeridgian marl, a chalky clay, flint and pebbly limestone, known locally as 'caillottes'. This soil imparts distinctive mineral and flinty characteristics to the wine. The harvest occurs between mid-September and mid-October when the grapes have reached optimal maturity. |
