Antoine Gouffier is a no-nonsense straight-shooter of a winemaker who has a small domaine established in 2021. He has the accolades (best young winemaker in France circa 2020) and the name drops (he worked with Michel Rolland in South America in the late 20-teens). He's travelled the globe making Sauvignon Blanc, but he came home to Pouilly Fume to make what we suspect is the best Sauvignon Blanc this side of Daguenau. Hand-farmed, low yield, carefully vinified grapes of sky high quality.
Drawn from vines planted in 1955, the oldest vines on the property. As befits these 70 year old vines, this is the powerhouse of the set, with the richest and sauciest fruit notes. Peaches, mangoes, flint and slate on the nose. More exotic fruit and mineral undercurrents on the palate, and while this is about as full-bodied as proper French Sauvignon Blanc gets, it is still crackling with acidity. 13% abv
