DOMAINE DE BEL AIR Pouilly-Fume 'Les Pierres Blanches' - Pouilly-Sur-Loire 2022 Bottle

Description

This 13.5 hectare domaine is set in the commune of le Bouchot on the slopes coming out of the village of Pouilly. It is very much a family affair in the hands of Katia Mauroy-Gauliez, who co-owns the estate with her father and brother, and who was the driving force behind the new winery built in 2002. Tasting Notes: Domaine Belair is planted with 13 hectares of Sauvignon Blanc on a variety of soils, calcaire at le Bouchot, marnes at St Andelain and sand in Pouilly. The winemaking is thoroughly modern and the resulting blend is consistent with typical rich aromas of nettles, gooseberry and minerals, followed on the palate by good weight of fruit and acidity with a flinty finish. Food: Perfect accompaniment to fish, oriental dishes and chicken.
