"Nicolas continues to deliver a benchmark example of this famous,
limestone-rich appellation. With a crisp, floral, white stone-fruit perfume, a
light/medium-body and a deliciously fine, unadulterated, pure, textured palate.
This is Nicolas’s third vintage. He’s just moved into a small dwelling in the
prime village of Les Loges; closer still to his beloved vines which perch
overlooking the river Loire. No fancy tricks here, just pure Pouilly-Fumé…as
nature intended. Perfect with the likes of white-bait (preferably fished from
the Loire)."

"A magnificent Pouilly-Fume - it glides and slips and has hidden depths.
Somehow more ethereal than many of the Sancerres I tasted, but no less potent.
Lovely on its own. Four stars."
(Victoria Moore- The Guardian Weekend Magazine, The Lure of the Loire-7th
June 2008)

Compared with his old vine single site wines (Monts Damnes, La Grande Cote,
Culs de Beaujeu) from the prized Chavignol enclave, Francois has produced a
fruitier, more accessible stony-lime pure Sauvignon Blanc wine. A great
introduction to this remarkable estate."

"From the red flint south facing soils of Les Renardieres, just below Les
Cocques and the village of St.Andelain comes this thoroughbred of a
Pouilly-Fume, born of 70 year old vines and elevage in 25% new french 300 litre
tonneaux. Immensely pure and detailed on the nose, with stony, crushed oyster
shell fruit aromatics which are gently supported by a cushion of finest oak.
The palate at this embryonic stage of its life swells with tension, a lovely
weave of shellfish and citrus fruit, sublime ripeness and exquisite balance.
Worth decanting beforehand. Bravo Alain!"
(David Berry Green-BBR Buyer)
