Domaine Chollet Pouilly-Fumé 2025

Crafted by the historic, family-run Domaine Chollet in Pouilly-sur-Loire, this benchmark Sauvignon Blanc expresses the unique flint (silex) and limestone soils of the region. Fermented and aged on fine lees in temperature-controlled stainless steel, the 2025 vintage delivers remarkable aromatic intensity, combining ripe orchard fruits with the signature gunflint minerality that gives Pouilly-Fumé its world-famous name. 🍇✨ Pouring a pale, brilliant gold with greenish reflections, it opens with expressive aromas of ripe grapefruit, white peach, and lemongrass, accented by subtle notes of fresh elderflower and a distinct smoky, chalky minerality. On the palate, it is crisp, elegant, and beautifully focused, featuring bright, vibrant acidity, a silky mid-palate, and a long, energetic, saline finish. A stellar companion to Crottin de Chavignol goat cheese, grilled asparagus, fresh oysters, roasted trout, or ceviche. 🦪🐟🥗🧀
