La Valodie Pouilly-Fumé 2024 is a classic Loire Valley white, crafted exclusively from Sauvignon Blanc, the hallmark grape of this esteemed appellation. The 2024 vintage, youthful by nature, reveals a crystalline, pale straw colour edged with green highlights. The terroir of Pouilly-Fumé is marked by Kimmeridgian marl and flinty limestone, imparting a fine mineral tension and the characteristic “fumé” or smoky note for which the wine is famed. Vinification is traditionally carried out in stainless steel to preserve purity of fruit, resulting in a vibrant profile that wonderfully showcases zesty citrus, white peach, acacia blossom, and a subtle nuance of gunflint.
The Pouilly-Fumé AOC is nestled on the eastern banks of the Loire River, facing Sancerre. The region benefits from a temperate continental climate, with sufficient sunshine and cooling river breezes to enhance aromatic intensity and maintain a refreshing acidity. The soils—composed of limestone, marls, and especially silex (flint)—are renowned for giving Sauvignon Blanc an inimitable minerality and complexity. The area's winemaking history stretches back to Roman times, with a strong tradition of meticulous vineyard management and restraint in the cellar, ensuring wines of great finesse and expression.
This Pouilly-Fumé shines alongside seafood platters, particularly oysters, shellfish, and grilled prawns. Its invigorating freshness and minerality pair equally well with goat’s cheese such as the local Crottin de Chavignol, and delicate white fish cooked with herbs. For a local pairing, try it with a quiche au saumon or fine asparagus drizzled with lemon. Its subtle smokiness also makes it a surprisingly good match for mildly spiced sashimi or ceviche.
For optimal enjoyment, serve the La Valodie Pouilly-Fumé 2024 chilled, between 8-10°C. Open young to appreciate its aromatic vitality, ideally within 2-3 years. Pour into tulip-shaped glasses to allow its bouquet to flourish, and savour its lingering, vibrant finish.
