Description
This fabulous Pouilly Fume is at once classic yet remains distinctive when tasted against other Pouilly Fumes at a similair price point. The nose offers an alluring mix of gunflint, wet stone and citrus fruit. Crisp and tangy on the palate with a mineral, smoky finish.

He has recently returned home and become the 6th Generation of Lebrun to run the family estate in Pouilly-Fumé.

2012 Quarts De Chaume, Baumard, Half Bottle
Chenin Blanc
We have a soft spot for the incredible Chenin Blancs from Baumard and gems such as this truly spectacular wine highlight the quality of winemaking at this Domaine. Baumard eschew traditional trellising methods for this part of the Loire and have also flown in the face of tradition by switching excluisively to screwcaps for their range. The Quarts de Chaume vineyard enjoys a superb terroir and a unique situation producing wines of rare elegance. This remarkable wine is wonderfuly textured and manages to comine power and clarity alongside richness and precision. Complex with floral bouquets and notes of citrus and orchard fruit with impeccable acidity, this is a wine to savour.
