Product Notes

Domaine de Bel Air Pouilly-Fumé represents exceptional quality from the hallowed vineyards of France's Loire Valley. Possessing an exhilarating bouquet, it embodies lively undertones of lemon, pear, grapefruit and subtle flint, resonating its terroir's pebble-laden soil. With a light body and a superb balance of acidity, the wine has an impressive minerality that whispers of its riverside origins. Its nuanced finish, leaving traces of smoky flavours, is characteristic of the famed ‘Fumé’ style. Ideal as an aperitif, this pristine Sauvignon Blanc also pairs exquisitely with seafood, making it a splendid companion for your wine collection.
