Pouilly-Fumé Domaine Henri Bourgeois 2024

Domaine Henri Bourgeois, Chavignol

For ten generations now the Bourgeois family has devoted its passion and values to Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir, becoming Sancerre’s most well-known producer. The company is now led by the current generation of the family – Jean-Marie and Remi Bourgeois. The winery and family base is the village of Chavignol, and Domaine holdings can be found on a mosaic of plots throughout Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé. Each plot is isolated and worked in respect of its origin to reveal, in the most precise and true way, the expression of its terroir, whether we are talking Kimmeridgian marls, flint, or limestone clay soils. We see this expressed in a dizzying array of bottlings, many of which are amongst the most sought after of their kind in the Loire each year.

Gentle pressing and static settling for 24 hours. Fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats, between 15 and 18°C. This long fermentation at low temperature preserves more intense and more delicate aromas. Aged for 5 to 6 months on fine before bottling.

The freshness of the fruit and the crispness of the Sauvignon Blanc create a concentrated, elegant wine that lingers on the palate with a long, mineral finish.

Grape: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
