Pouilly-Fumé

Domaine Raimbault-Pineau · Loire Valley, France

Sauvignon Blanc

Pouilly-Fumé

Fine, complex wine with notes of mineral, citrus, quince, and honey. Dry and fruity with slow fermentation preserving aromas. Pairs with aperitif, starters, seafood, and foie gras.

VinificationThe grapes are taken directly to the pneumatic press where the must is extracted with great care. After racking, the must is then transferred to the thermo-regulated tanks where it is fermented for 1 month at a constant temperature of 16-18°C (61-64°F). This long, slow fermentation conserves the wine's unique aromas, and after resting on fine lees for 5-6 months, each cuvée is blended with great care to ensure the highest possible quality.
HarvestHarvesting is done at the end of September when the grapes have obtained their optimum ripeness.
