    The tense and vibrant attack gives then way to fatness and roundness. Its high minerality and its length in mouth allow a great variety of matches such as cod loin with hollandaise sauce, grilled lobster and crystallised lemon, monkfish tail with piment d’Espelette or sweetbread and truffles juice

    Michelle and Jean-Michel Masson created Domaine Masson-Blondelet in 1975. In 1980, in the heart of the village of Pouilly, they built a buried cellar on 3 levels to work by gravity. In 2000, their two children Mélanie and Pierre-François joined them. They are the seventh generation of winemakers of the estate. Our 21 hectares of vines of Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir are planted on slopes on the best terroirs of the AOC. They are oriented South/South-East and can benefit of a micro-climate created by the Loire River. At this place, the river is classified as natural reserve. We don’t use CHEMICAL FERTILISERS since more than 40 years and we don’t use any HERBICIDE NOR INSECTICIDE since 2002! The loughing of their soils is crucial. The soils are regularly tilled, in this way, they promote the expression of each of our 3 terroirs of Pouilly-Fume for more than three decades. Masson-Blondelet is famous today for our constant research of quality and of the purest expression of Sauvignon Blanc on this unique and preserved Loire Valley terroir.

    Capable of a vast array of styles, Sauvignon Blanc is a crisp, refreshing variety that equally reflects both terroir and varietal character. Though it can vary depending on where it is grown, a couple of commonalities always exist—namely, zesty acidity and intense aromatics. This variety is of French provenance. Somm Secret—Along with Cabernet Franc, Sauvignon Blanc is a proud parent of Cabernet Sauvignon. That green bell pepper aroma that all three varieties share is no coincidence—it comes from a high concentration of pyrazines (herbaceous aromatic compounds) inherent to each member of the family.

    Famous in the Loire and throughout the world for perfumed Sauvignon blanc, Pouilly-Fume sits due east, across the Loire River from Sancerre. Limestone soils with clay and flint (also called silex) contribute to the wines' freshness and often times smoky, flinty, mineral character.
