Domaine Lebrun Description

Across the Loire river from the more well-known region Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé shares the same grape, Sauvignon Blanc, and the same Kimmeridgian limestone that gives it the lively minerality that everyone enjoys. The one distinction is that Pouilly-Fumé has more flint in its soils.

Domaine Lebrun Pouilly-Fumé - The first plots of "Blanc fumé" or Sauvignon Blanc were planted by the Lebrun family in the early 19th century. The Domaine is run by Laurent Lebrun on nearly 22 acres in the heart of the Pouilly-Fumé appellation on the slopes of Saint-Andelain with its typical flinty clay terroirs.  Its pale color with green reflections offers a nice open and typical nose of acacia, fresh notes of citrus fruits and lime then a smoky and mineral touch of gunflint. On the palate, this wine has a nice balance, dry and lively with precision and a linear purity of flavor.  A tremendous value!
