The 2017 Domaine de Ladoucette Baron de L Pouilly-Fumé is a flagship Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc, produced only in top vintages and representing the pinnacle of the estate’s precision and terroir expression. Sourced from flint and limestone-rich vineyards, it delivers a highly refined and mineral-driven style. The nose is vibrant and complex, with lime, green apple and citrus layered with fresh-cut grass, orange peel and pronounced flinty minerality.
On the palate, it is full-bodied yet focused, showing bright acidity, pure citrus fruit and a strong mineral backbone, leading to a long, elegant and deeply complex finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a benchmark Pouilly-Fumé and a premium choice for serious Sauvignon Blanc lovers. Ideal for customers who enjoy mineral-driven, age-worthy whites with precision and depth. Not just fresh—this is structured, complex and built to evolve. Drink now with decanting or cellar for 10–15+ years. Perfect with oysters, seafood, goat’s cheese or fine dining.
