Pouilly-Fumé is very close to Sancerre, in terms of grape variety (same, Sauvignon Blanc) and terroir (just on the other side of the river). Pauline Pabiot is a young and determined women that took over her grand-father’s estate (Roger Pabiot) quite recently. Alone, she is now managing 24 hectares in the very heart of Pouilly sur Loire. 22 hectares of Sauvignon blanc and some acres planted with Chasselas.
Presentation
Pouilly-sur-Loire, made from the "Chasselas" grape variety, is a small and rare appellation of 30 hectares. We cultivate 70 ares of it and some of our plots are more than 100 years old. This grape variety is a witness of the evolution of our appellation but also of the culture of the vine. Its qualities: robustness (it is little affected by esca unlike the sauvignon), finesse and tenderness.
