Antoine de la Farge took over the family winery in 2012 after years of working as a buyer in the wine trade. His grandfather, Gerard Clément, was one of the most respected winemakers on the Loire, and he still actively helps out in the winery today. The production methods here are as gentle as possible, e.g. the wine is moved by gravity in the cellar. Antoine wants to intervene as little as possible, grapes and terroir should go into the bottle unadulterated.
With its light yellow colour, this Pouilly-Fumé radiates all the freshness and exoticism of the Sauvignon Blanc vine. Gooseberries, citrus fruits and cool minerality can be found in its scent. On the palate it is of medium weight, intense, but always freshness is not neglected. A very fine and high-class Loire-Sauvignon. Try it with fish and seafood or with the region's traditional cheese, Grottin de Chavignol. By the way, he's also a lot of fun solo.
