Brief Description

Tasting Notes

A complex, concentrated example of Pouilly Fumé with well balanced, crisp gooseberry and blackcurrant leaf fruit overlaid with hints of citrus and mineral. The finish is elegant and long with hints of flint and ripe apple.

About

On this family owned 17 hectare Estate the system of minimum intervention is practised. The soil is analysed to determine if fertiliser is required or not and treatments only carried out if essential. The vines are on average 25 years old and are trained guyot simple. Each year there is green harvest and debudding in the spring in order to improve quality. The vine vigour and yield is reduced further by use of cover crops.

The wine is made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc. The grapes undergo temperature controlled fermentation for 18-20 days with no oak aging.

Ideal with...

Fish and white meat dishes, but also makes an excellent aperitif.
