Co-exhibitors of Sublime Terroir
Sauvignon Blanc is shaped by the varied terroirs of Pouilly-Fumé, from flint-rich soils to Kimmeridgian marl and limestone. The Blanchet family has cultivated vines in Pouilly-sur-Loire for eight generations, developing a deep understanding of these different soils, with Mathieu now taking over from his father Francis.
This knowledge allows each terroir to be approached and vinified separately, so its individual character can come through clearly in the wines. The vineyards are carefully ploughed and worked without relying on herbicides, while fermentation and ageing mainly take place in stainless steel to preserve purity and freshness.
The result is a range of precise, vibrant Pouilly-Fumés, marked by minerality and a clear expression of Sauvignon Blanc.
