“A blend of terroirs in Pouilly, the 2019 Pouilly-Fumé La Moynerie is made in a round and tranquil style – full-bodied yet not heavy. There’s a richness of fruit on the mid-palate and a ripeness, with flavors redolent of pear and some pastry notes derived from lees and partial fermentation in foudre and demi-muid (around 40%). A hint warming on the conclusion (14%) but the texture is great, the upright nature of the flint combining with the comforting clasp of the limestone soils. Fresh acidity builds on the finish.” -Rebecca Gibb MW August 2021

Description

This wine is 100% estate grown and bottled from fruit sourced exclusively from Michel Redde’s La Moynerie vineyard. The vines are between 20 and 25 years old and grow in diverse subsoils of limestone, kimmeridgian marl, and clay with flint-a diversity that allows superb blends in every vintage. The winemaker uses temperature-controlled fermentation and ages the wine on the lees until bottling.
