La Poussie
La Poussie is “a jewel in the Sancerre.” The vineyard’s origins can be traced back to the Capetians, as witnessed by a document dating from around 1040.
Following the French Revolution, the property was divided into 250 parcels. It took 70 years of perseverance and negotiation to bring it back to a sole ownership under the direction of the Baron de Ladoucette. This exceptional sun-drenched vineyard site with its natural amphitheater of an almost perfect semi-circle of 180°makes it one of the most unique in the world and provides a perfect microclimate for the vines.
Sauvignon Blanc gives the La Poussie Sancerre a light, fruity, dry profile - infused with the clay and limestone soil. There is no barrel fermentation for Sancerre, which preserves the integrity of the Sauvignon Blanc and encourages its natural acidity and flavor.
