Domaine Chatelain Les Chailloux Silex Pouilly-Fumé

Since 1630, the Chatelain family has been working the land on the hillsides of Pouilly sur Loire day after day.
Today, in the cuvées of the Chatelain estate, there is all the know-how and the work of the winegrowers, but it is also the transmission from generation to generation (now the 12th) of the love of wine to offer a worked, balanced and very typical wine.

This cuvée has been carefully selected by Vincent Chatelain in its best slopes. It comes from clay-siliceous soils with silex, from parcels called “Les Chailloux” which means hot pebbles, imparting to the final wine an elegant flinty character.
