The Domaine is run by Laurent Lebrun on nearly 9 hectares in the heart of the Pouilly-Fumé appellation on the slopes of Saint-Andelain with its typical flinty clay terroirs.

Tasting
Its pale color with green reflections offers a nice open and typical nose of acacia, fresh notes of citrus fruits and lime then a smoky and mineral touch of gunflint. On the palate, this wine has a nice balance, dry and nervous. Straightforward and straightforward finish.
