Why we chose it

“Pouilly-Fumé — the Loire’s other great Sauvignon Blanc appellation, often overshadowed by Sancerre but equally worth your attention. Smoky, mineral, exceptional with fish.”

About this wine

Pure and Precise Pouilly-Fumé

Joseph Mellot's Pouilly-Fumé Le Tronsec is a textbook expression of the Loire Valley's most prestigious Sauvignon Blanc appellation. Drawn from vines planted in the region's distinctive silex and limestone soils, it offers an intensely aromatic nose of grapefruit, white currant and freshly cut herbs, underscored by a signature smoky, flinty minerality that gives Pouilly-Fumé its name.

Crisp and focused on the palate, with razor-sharp acidity and a clean, elongated finish, this is a wine of real precision and character. Outstanding alongside goat's cheeses, fresh asparagus, oysters or delicate fish dishes. A benchmark example from one of the appellation's most respected family estates.

About the producer

Joseph Mellot is a long-established Loire Valley négociant and domaine owner based in Chavignol in the heart of Sancerre country. With family winemaking roots in the region traceable to 1513, Mellot cultivates vineyards across Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé, Menetou-Salon, and Saumur Champigny. The wines are prized for their purity, mineral precision, and authentic expression of Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir from the Loire's chalky and silex soils.
