Description
Crafted by the Langoux family at Domaine de Petit Soumard, who have been making wine since 1895, this premium Sauvignon Blanc hails from the highly regarded Pouilly-Fumé appellation in France's Loire Valley. Situated across the river from Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé is renowned for producing Sauvignon Blancs with a softer texture, elegant roundness, and distinctive smoky nuances compared to its crisper neighbour. This classic expression opens with an inviting bouquet of fresh gooseberry, cut grass, and an underlying signature smokiness.
On the palate, it is beautifully structured, revealing subtle hints of honeysuckle alongside vibrant gooseberry, culminating in a delicate, smoky finish. Wonderfully versatile, this refined Pouilly-Fumé pairs exceptionally well with seafood, fresh fish, roasted chicken, or gently spiced East Asian dishes.
