Beloved in France and revered in different parts of the world, Pouilly-Fumé is an appellation wine made from Sauvignon Blanc grapes. Its origin is an area that lies in the vicinity of the course of the Loire River. We are around the municipality of Pouilly-sur-Loire, in the Nièvre department. Patrice Moreux's Pouilly-Fumé comes from grapes harvested in the company's biodynamically farmed vineyards, which are rooted in predominantly limestone soils with parts of silicon. And it is this combination of elements, combined with a cool and humid climate, that ensures that Sauvignon Blanc reaches perfect maturity, developing all the aromas typical for the variety. At that point Patrice Moreux's task is relatively simplified. In the cellar, in fact, he will have to limit himself to not spoiling what good things nature provides. Again, the winemaker chooses to make the most of his natural environment, avoiding the use of selected yeasts to activate fermentation but choosing to let the indigenous people initiate the delicate transformation process. The result? The ultimate in expressiveness. A surprising wine to pair with shellfish.
