Clos de la Poussie is one of the most highly regarded vineyards in Sancerre, known for making particularly elegant fine Sauvignon Blanc. Pale golden in colour with a nose of elderflower and grapefruit, and a wisp of gun-flint. The palate is light, dry and elegant, with gooseberry fruit and a mineral finish. A light, fruity, dry and vigorous Sauvignon Blanc, infused with the clay and limestone soil.

"Light yellow. Flinty aromas of apple, orange blossom and wet stone. Tactile and a touch rough-grained, with chalky minerality giving definition to the classically dry sauvignon blanc flavors of lemon zest, herbs and quinine. Tightens up on the back of the palate, finishing with good lift to its stony flavors."
