Pouilly-Fumé AOC

Summary

Area in the Loire Valley producing white wines only. This area is flatter and therefore more prone to frost risk due to its topography. Caillottes, Terre Blanche and Silex soils are all found, providing nuances in wine. The wines are slightly rounder, with less intensity compared to Sancerre AOC expressions.
