Pouilly Fumé Terres Blanches, Jolivet

Pouilly Fumé from Kimmeridgian marl — this is the address for Sauvignon Blanc that shows more than gooseberry and grass. The Terres Blanches stand for depth, salinity, and a precision that is immediately noticeable in the glass.

Pascal Jolivet is one of the most reliable names on the Loire. His winery in Sancerre has been working for decades with both its own vineyards and selected plots in Pouilly-sur-Loire. The Terres Blanches — literally "white soils" — refer to the light clay-limestone marl that gives the Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé appellations their characteristic minerality. Jolivet vinifies this cuvée in steel tanks so as not to mask the purity of the terroir.

Bright straw yellow in the glass. The nose brings citrus zest, white peach, and a distinct flint tone — the classic Fumé profile. Tight acidity on the palate with good melt, medium body, salty-mineral finish with pleasant length.
