FRESH, COMPLEX, & RACY. Subtle floral & earthy green
plant aromas, such as acacia, ferns, peppermint & white nettles. Notes of
stony minerals & lemon give the wine a beautiful structure, balanced by
round fruit flavors & a citrus-infused finish.
100% Sauvignon Blanc
Purchased by the Comte Lafond, an ancestor of current owner
Baron Patrick de Ladoucette, Château du Nozet & its surrounding vineyards
have a reputation for producing the finest Pouilly-Fumé. The vineyards enjoy
both clay and limestone soils, which influence the delicate mineral characteristics
in Ladoucette Pouilly-Fume. The wine is blended 7 to 8 months after harvesting,
and is stored in glass-tiled tanks. No wood is used throughout the wine-making
process, in order to preserve the freshness and full flavor of the Sauvignon
Blanc grape. |
