Tasting Notes
Aroma
Wonderful smokey, flinty aromas with a hint of grassiness over rich complex
minerally notes which define first the bouquet and then the palate.
Maturation
Stainless steel.
Appearance
Very pale straw, with bright green reflections.
Palate
The minerally palate shows nuances of citrus, in particular grapefruit. Tight with
deep flavours and structure, it finishes with steely finesse. Domaine Christian
Salmon Pouilly Fume leaves one with an overall sensation of freshness and balance.
Vinification
The bunches are lightly crushed as soon as they arrive to the winery. The must is pumped into stainless
steel tanks and left to cold settle before the fermentation, which occurs naturally. The temperature of
the ferment is closely monitored to avoid any possible risk of oxidation and to retain freshness and
aroma. The wine is racked and a minimal addition of sulphur dioxide is made as required. The wine is
rested in tank prior to bottling.
Domaine Christian Salmon is looking to preserve the typical flavours and aromas of Sauvignon Blanc
from Pouilly Fume, and no oak treatment is involved in the production.
Cellaring Potential
Up to 2-3 years.
