Vinification of the Pouilly-Fumé les Cailloux Silex from Domaine Chatelain

This wine clearly focuses on one grape variety, and that is Sauvignon Blanc. Only the best grape material was used for this wonderfully balanced varietal wine from Domaine Chatelain. In the Val de Loire, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on soils of limestone and clay. After harvesting, the grapes arrive quickly at the winery. Here they are selected and carefully crushed. Fermentation follows in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by aging on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally bottled.
