Dominique PABIOT, a fifth-generation winemaker, is determined to respect the famous winemaking traditions of Pouilly Fumé. Our area is made up of several parcels of land that are situated in the heart of the vineyard. All our efforts are combined to make our wine a high quality product. The ancestral savoir-faire (know-how) of the winemaker, combined with modern equipment and techniques, allows us to preserve the overall finesse of our Pouilly Fumé until the moment you taste it. Once the grapes are harvested, they are placed in the press where only the first pomace is stored. We give our total care to the vinification. In fact, during the fermentation process, we trust only the natural yeasts contained in the grapes. The wine is racked during the winter, then it is racked to unite all the qualities coming from the different types of soil. After light filtration, the wine is bottled in the spring. Finally, we give the wine the necessary rest (around 2 months) to allow the bouquet and fruit to reach its maximum before the wine is put on sale.
Pouilly-Fumé 'les Vieilles Terres' has a pale yellow colour with greenish highlights and an expressive bouquet. The wine is floral and full of finesse. It is a balanced wine with a pleasant lightness.
The fruit of the old vines is carefully selected, and the 'Cuvée Plaisir' is produced on the sunny slopes of the village of 'Les Loges' in the best years of the vintage.
This Pouilly-Fumé has great finesse, is round, supple and very aromatic: both floral and fruity notes are admirably expressed in the aromas of the Sauvignon variety.
Our Pouilly-Fumé goes wonderfully well with a variety of delicacies, shellfish, fish, poultry and goat's cheese. The wine is best tasted at 10-12° C. It will keep for several years.
