Our philosophy

Known as “Pauliacum super fluvium ligerim“, the Pouilly-sur-Loire vineyard has continued to grow since the 5^th century. From the Benedictines to the kings, the wines of Pouilly have forged their reputation. Over the years, the vineyard developed Chasselas and White Sauvignon where fruitiness and minerality were their typical characteristics.
In 1937, the creation of the ’AOC “Pouilly-Fumé” marked the beginning of the era of Sauvignon called “Blanc Fumé”.

Chasselas, the vineyard’s historic grape variety, was also awarded its AOC “Pouilly-sur-Loire” the same year.
The “Blanc Fumé” and the historic Chasselas are renowned as fruity, expressive and fine white wines throughout the world.

For 4 generations, the know-how and history of the vineyard have been passed down from father to son. Today, the fifth generation is embodied by Pauline, who symbolises modernity and a contemporary vision of viticulture.
We attach real importance to the well-being of our teams and to ensuring that everyone finds meaning in their missions.

Being a winemaker requires a great sense of observation: climate, plant evolution, soil characteristics. The rhythm of the vine guides us every day.
Choosing organic farming is a response to climate issues and our quality requirements. We began this transition in 2021, then obtained certification in 2024.

Our wines are produced in a plot-by-plot manner: vinification is carried out by terroir (flint, limestone, clayey sand) in order to allow the full expression of each of them. Before bottling, we proceed with the blends in order to find the best balance.

• The “Coteau des Girarmes” vintage reveals the roundness and fruitiness of the pebbled, clay-limestone and clayey sand terroirs.
• The Silex comes from a single plot. We reserve this cuvée for the best vintages, in order to benefit from the full expression of its characteristic minerality.
• “From Earth to Stars”, it’s instinct that speaks! It’s a myriad of little things that make it subtle. In particular, tasting the musts allows you to select the one with the best potential. Two winemaking techniques will then be used: fermentation in barrels and in ovoid vats. Finally, the two processes are combined to reveal the best of this original vintage.

Always interested in advances in research, both on plants and on soil life, we regularly carry out tests in the field such as green fertilizers; agroforestry, eco-grazing, etc.
