Domaine Gerard Fiou Pouilly-Fume AOP Autochtone 2023
Florent Bourgeois passionately upholds his family's winemaking legacy at Domaine Gérard Fiou. He meticulously tends to the vineyard and winery, crafting wines that exemplify the estate's commitment to high standards and precision.
Since 2013, Florent has managed Domaine Gérard Fiou, drawing on his family heritage, background, and global winemaking experiences to create expressive and exceptional terroir wines, renowned among Sancerre's finest. The Domaine, spanning 9.8 hectares, is planted with Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir.
Situated on a flinty hillside with clay-siliceous soil in Saint-Satur, near the Loire River and the peak of Sancerre, this estate benefits from the rare and distinctive flint terroir, making up 20% of Sancerre's terroirs, alongside "terres blanches" (40%) and "caillottes" (40%)
Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Sauvignon Blanc. The Pouilly Fumé appellation is located on the upper reaches of the Loire and is rightly a stronghold for Sauvignon Blanc. The limestone and flint soils give the wines a very special style, which often has a smoky note, but is always very mineral.
Taste Profile: Youthful pale yellow colour with tints of green, a floral bouquet reveals aromas of passion fruit and grapefruit, mineral notes andgreen bell pepper (typical of Sauvignon Blanc), sustained acidity and liveliness as well as refreshing, hints of lime, great character, a straight yet very expressive wine that is long on the palate.
Winemaking Process: Vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, this wine is aged on its fine fermentation lees, which are regularly put back into suspension by stirring for over 6 months.
