2018 Didier Pabiot 'Prelude' Pouilly-Fumé
$36
A classic example of Sauvignon Blanc from the Pouilly-Fumé region. Pale straw in color with bright citrus, white flower and tropical fruit notes balanced by flinty minerality gained from the limestone soil of the area.
The Pabiot family has farmed their vineyards for six generations, with Jonathan taking over the domain in 2005 and converting the estate to organic shortly after. Today it’s one of three sites in the appellation that uses biodynamic farming practices. The steep plots are cross planted with fruit trees and other native vegetation to create a symbiosis between the vines and their surroundings. The wine is fermented on lees in stainless steel and concrete vats for six to eight months.
