APPELLATIONS CUVÉES
Pouilly-Fumé is an appellation located in the administrative region of Burgundy! Yet it is a true Loire shining star! ‘Blanc Fumé de Pouilly’, the world famous wine for its ‘smoky’ aromas epitomizes the Sauvignon Blanc aristocracy. Our ‘Les Deux Cailloux’ cuvée is a benchmark of the appellation made from the mosaic of terroirs scattered around the appellation.
WINEMAKING & AGEING
Planted on great terroirs, thriving on a mild climate brought by the Loire River, the Sauvignon fully delivers its incredible potential. Our mission is to ensure that each vineyard reach their full ripening potential. Harmonious vineyard practices enable us to pick great quality grapes resulting in minimal winemaking. The temperature controlled fermentation is followed by a 6-12 month fine lees ageing (with weekly batonnage). The wines are bottled in Spring after a slight filtration.
FOOD PAIRING
The ‘Les Deux Cailloux’ cuvée is a delight with fish in sauce and delicate sea food. Our Pouilly Fumé shines with your gourmet appetizers such as tapas and/or gambas ‘piri-piri’.
Tasting note
Aromas & taste
Intense and attractive, the concentrated citrus notes on the nose immediatley grab your attention. The ripe fruit flavors continue with the discovery of a sophisticated and well-balanced palate, extended by the final ‘smoky’ sensation.

90 points / Like so many wines from the Pouilly Fumé appellation, this wine is very young at this stage. It shows pepper and only the beginnings of what will be intense white fruits, good acidity and rich texture. Drink from 2018. |
