Lot

Grape Variety

Sauvignon Blanc

Producer

Maison Foucher Lebrun

Picked early to retain freshness, 2018 Cécile Lebrun Pouilly Fumé has aromas of fresh fennel with gunflint and mineral notes. It is medium bodied with good mid palate weight and gooseberry flavours. On the finish it is crisp with lingering lemon, lime and other citrus flavours. The grapes were grown on two soils within the appellation – Portlandian limestone, bringing minerality, and “silex” clay-flint, giving more richness. Grapes were de-stemmed, pressed and slowly fermented over a six to eight-week period.
