Blanc Fumé de Pouilly 'Les Cornets'

Producers

The soil is Kimmeridgian marl (period of the upper Jurassic) also called 'white land'. It is located in the village of Pouilly-sur-Loire and more precisely along the Ancient Roman way. This soil reveals pure, aromatic, mineral and gourmand complexity. Les Cornets is one of a series of single terroir wines from single vineyard locations within the Michel Redde domaine that produce particularly expressive wines. The Redde family believe these sites represent unofficial grand crus of the Pouilly-Fumé appellations. Les Cornets is from the village of Pouilly-sur-Loire and is characterised by its pure, aromatic, mineral and gourmand complexity. It should be decanted before serving and can be cellared for 10 to 15 years.
