"High expression of Sauvignon
Here, Sauvignon takes root on the limestone slopes north of Pouilly, drawing all its typicality from the "Caillottes" soils. On the nose, the wine expresses white-fleshed fruit and citrus with a marked aromatic intensity. The mineral character of this cuvée adds complexity and length to the wine. Very typical!
