- A barrel-fermented Pouilly Fumé with ripe fruit concentration on the nose and palate, characteristic flinty notes and a subtle touch of oak. The textured palate is beautifully balanced and has a lovely mineral freshness on the long, persistent finish.
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 Poussard method, which emphasises the bilateral flow of the sap in the vine. The vineyard is carefully cultivated throughout the year, with the vines de-budded and the soil tilled to reduce the need for herbicides. Certain parcels are left with grass cover to limit the vines' vigour. Green harvesting takes place to limit the yields and concentrate the flavours in the remaining fruit, and canopy management, such as deleafing, takes place at the end of June. The soil in the vineyard is made up of clay-limestone. The harvest occurs between mid-September and mid-October when the grapes have reached optimal maturity.
