The delicate and complex olfactory expression opens on aromas which remind of white flower, exotic fruits. There is a very beautiful complexity for a vintage where the end-of-season’s sun brought a lot to the aromas. Excellent complexity that translates into great and elegant richness. Nice attack, straight and bright, it takes place with elegance on fruity notes associated with a dense structure and a beautiful acidity which brings a great length in the end of the mouth. There are aromas of exotic fruits (litchi, mango)

De Ladoucette

The largest and most famous Pouilly-Fumé vineyards have been in the hands of the Comte Lafond and Ladoucette families since 1787 when the Comte Lafond purchased the estate from the illegitimate daughter of the French king Louis XV. The estate is now owned by Baron Patrick de Ladoucette a descendant of the Comte Lafond and Pouilly Fumé has earned a reputation as one of the world’s great white wines. After taking over Ladoucette in 1972 the Baron extended his activities to Sancerre Chablis Vouvray and Chinon. Today the Baron produces outstanding Loire Valley wines under the de Ladoucette Marc Bredif La Poussie Regnard and Baron Patrick labels. Many of the wines including the Pouilly Fumé de Ladoucette Baron de L and Comte Lafond are considered to be the finest examples of their type.
