Désert
A wine dedicated to the hedonist, with treat and freshness.
Désert comes from the terroir “Désert des Fouinelles”, according to the elder, nothing took roots except… vines! This soil “Terres Blanches” who was formerly covered by the ocean in the Jurassic era, brings some minerality and vivacity to the Sauvignon Blanc. From the ocean to the desert, from the aridity to the fruit explosion, that’s the magic of Pouilly-Fumé… for a unique cuvée!
