Roc de l'Abbaye Pouilly-Fumé (2022)

Domaine Roc de l’Abbaye, owned and operated by the Mollet family, is located in Saint-Satur, a village in the heart of Sancerre with winegrowing origins dating back to the 11th century. Saint-Satur is famous for its ancient Abbey and its Silex (flint) terroir on the hillsides bordering the Loire river. Silex is a coveted soil type, found in only 15% of the vineyards in Sancerre, that produces wines with amazing minerality, acidity and precision with trademark smoky notes.

This wine is a blend of 4 parcels in the villages of Boisgibault and Tracy-sur-Loire from the 15 acres owned and farmed by the Mollet family for over 300 years. Prior to harvest, Florian Mollet tastes the fruit to ensure the most rigorous selection possible. Careful temperature control during vinification preserves grape phenolics. With its silky texture and compelling freshness, minerality and citrus character, this Pouilly Fumé is an authentic expression of the terroirs of this appellation
