Product information "Pouilly-Fumé - La Demoiselle de Bourgeois 2020"
Made from a strict selection of the best Sauvignon grapes, La Demoi-selle is harvested on the Kim-meridgian marls of Saint-Laurent l'Abbaye, where the first vines of this AOC were planted. This terroir gives roundness, deepness and a great longevity to the wines.
Winemaking
After a gentle pressing and 24 hours settling, 85% of the must is ferment-ed in thermo-regulated stainless steel tanks at 15 to 18°C. The remaining 15% are fermented in 600 litres oak barrels. This subtle blending gives a great complexity to the wine. Maturation takes place on fine lees for 9 to 10 months before bottling.
Wine & food
This wines is a great match with fine cuisine. A Steamed skate with spinach in a tangy sauce would do perfectly. Or some filleted farm hen breasts in supreme sauce with roasted apple will convinced those who prefer a white meat. A plate of cheese would also thrill the gourmet.
Tasting Notes
Like a “Grand Cru”, the terroir of Pouilly gives a richness and a com-plex aromatic palate to this wine. The lively acidity and the mineral notes (chalky and flinty) are bal-anced by delicious flavours of citrus, pear, quince and green plum fruits but also white flowers and white peppers. It shows a very nice persis-tence on the finish. With its struc-ture La Demoiselle may age in bot-tle for 8 to 10 years.
