History
The Loire meanders through the sun-drenched slopes of Pouilly. Since the 5th century these slopes have been home to one of the most exquisite expressions of a vineyard; the renowned Pouilly-Fumé wine.
For more than four generations, our family has shared a common passion: working the vineyard and making wine. This passion has been passed from father to sons and now from father to daughters! We would like you to discover this passion... and to taste it.
The Lands of Pouilly
Domaine is mostly located on kimmeridgian marl soils, also known as “Terres Blanches” (chalky soil), a hint of Barrois limestone and a small but precious vein of flint: beautiful soils which are expressed and revealed in our different cuvées.
The average age of our Sauvignon vines is 40 years-old (Pouilly-Fumé) and more than a hundred years-old for our Chasselas vines (Pouilly-sur-Loire).
A great wine is first and foremost conceived in the intrinsic quality of the grapes. This is why we care for and respect our soils by bringing constant care to each and every plant.
Our reasoned and committed practices aim to preserve this environmental heritage: High Environmental Value certification (HEV), ploughing, earthing-up and earthing-down, no chemical weeding, optimal use of biocontrol (e.g. sexual disorientation against grape worms); etc.
