The Guy Baudin estate is a wonderful place in the charming Pouilly Fumé region of the Loire Valley. Their wine is simply delightful, exuding charm and elegance. The finesse of this wine comes from a vineyard with clay-limestone soil on marls that date back to the Kimmeridgian period. The people who tend to this land are passionate and dedicated, and their hard work shines through in every sip of this delicious wine.
Organic in conversion: Wine is made from grapes grown without synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, and herbicides in the vineyard.

Tasting notes: The Sauvignon Blanc shines and expresses its typical smoky aromas. It delivers sweet citrus notes such as grapefruit and lemon zest.
The Sauvignon Blanc exhibits finesse on the palate with delicate hints of toasted and nutty flavors. Despite its richness, it never feels heavy, thanks to a perfect balance achieved by a refreshing acidity that creates a pleasant tension. The mineral finish adds depth to this refined wine. Its alcohol content is 13% of the volume.
Food pairing: Pouilly-Fume wines are dry and low in alcohol. They are wonderful with seasonal vegetables like white asparagus, seafood, fish, and poultry dishes. Fantastic with Japanese dishes, including sushi and sashimi. Classic with fresh goat cheese and creamy Brie.
Winemaking: Vinification of Pouilly Fumé and Pouilly Sur Loire:
Vinification is a crucial stage that determines the orientation of the wine, and it is said that it reveals the winemaker's personality.
With us, we take precedence over authenticity, and each vintage will be different because the yeasts naturally present on the grapes will determine the wine's taste. Sunshine, rain, and possible climatic hazards will be predominant.
