Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Pale yellow-green color. The subtle nose reveals a combination of smoky and ripe fruit flavors. The palate is dominated by flavors of candied pineapple, peach, and mango. An elegant acidity supports the typical “smoky” flavors of Pouilly Fumé and completes this great wine.

Professional Ratings

    Intense and pure on the nose with gooseberry, quince and green mango. Dry, fresh and nicely textured, with a mineral accent to the finish. Drink now.
  • 91

    This fullbodied wine has ripeness alongside a youthful steely texture. The fruit is tangy, with zesty acidity against crisp apples.

Capable of a vast array of styles, Sauvignon Blanc is a crisp, refreshing variety that equally reflects both terroir and varietal character. Though it can vary depending on where it is grown, a couple of commonalities always exist—namely, zesty acidity and intense aromatics. This variety is of French provenance. Somm Secret—Along with Cabernet Franc, Sauvignon Blanc is a proud parent of Cabernet Sauvignon. That green bell pepper aroma that all three varieties share is no coincidence—it comes from a high concentration of pyrazines (herbaceous aromatic compounds) inherent to each member of the family.

Loire, France

Famous in the Loire and throughout the world for perfumed Sauvignon blanc, Pouilly-Fume sits due east, across the Loire River from Sancerre. Limestone soils with clay and flint (also called silex) contribute to the wines' freshness and often times smoky, flinty, mineral character.
