Pouilly-Fumé Vieilles Vignes 2023
Pouilly-Fumé AOC, Loire Valley, France
Sauvignon Blanc | 12.5% ABV
This wine is expressive but focused. A strong, intense acidity followed by a softening complexity of green apple, pineapple, lime zest and elderflower. Great balance and body complete this fantastic creation.
Excellent with appetizers, white meat, fish accompanied by a sauce, and cheese.
Best served at 11 - 13°C.
Lucia has a large experience in wines market. After working in Bordeaux, then in NYC for Château Smith Haut Lafitte and as a sales manager in Paris for Comptoir des Grandes Marques, she decided to explore the heart of the creations. Mid 2021, she comes out of her comfort zone and took over the estate of Régis in the PDO Pouilly-Fumé, where she grew-up.
The 12 hectare winery is at the forefront of modernity. Harvest and vinification methods preserve the uniqueness of terroirs and Sauvignon Blanc. The different types of terroirs; Terres Blanches, clay and limestone are typical from the appellation Pouilly Fume_, revealing the lively character of the Sauvignon Blanc, with notes of white flowers, citrus, yellow fruits, and flint. Vieilles Vignes is the historical cuvée of the domaine, a blend of the grapes from our different oldest plots (on average 30 years old), and from terres blanches and caillottes terroirs. The vine with its deep roots, has been blossoming for many years on its favourite terroirs, feeding on the minerality of the soil, to offer us a wine with great intensity back into wine.s
