Often imitated, the one and only "Blanc Fumé" draws its characteristics from its original terroir in the Center of France, on the banks of the Loire river. More commonly known as "Pouilly-Fumé", the "Blanc Fumé" appellation is the original name of this 100% Sauvignon Blanc. Its classification, one of the oldest in France, goes back to 1937. The term "Blanc Fumé" (smoky white) refers to the thin smoke colored layer covering the grapes during harvest, but also to the unique aromas of gunflint.

Pale gold hue with bluish crystalline tints. After revealing mineral notes on the nose, the wine opens with a perfect balance of alcohol and acidity on the palate. This Sauvignon Blanc shows a nice taut structure, lovely persistence on the palate with notes that are almost saline.
