Pouilly Fumé, vatgerijpt, Tradition Cullus - Domaine Masson Blondelet
Een schitterende fris droge Pouilly met aroma's van citrusfruit gevolgd door een toets van hout. De smaak is verfijnd met een mooie balans tussen het rijpe fruit, een zijdezacht zuurtje en de invloeden van een periode rijping in Frans eiken vaten.De wijn heeft een afdronk met mooie lengte.
Pouilly-Fume ‘Tradition Cullus’ ,a tribute to Michelle’s great grand father, is made from our eldest vines, from 50 to 60 years old, and vinified in new oak 600 litres barrels. They are planted on Kimmeridgean marls.
2023 Vintage 2020 93/100 - Wine Enthousiast Magazine:
« This lightly wood-aged wine is smooth and offers ripe white fruits.
Its hints of toast are beautifully judged, giving a rounded wine that will be ready to drink from 2024. » Roger Voss

Over het Domaine:
Michelle and Jean-Michel Masson created Domaine Masson-Blondelet when they got married, in 1975, being the sixth generation of vine-growers and producers of pouilly fume in the family. The estate is 21 hectares in size, which are planted on the best sites in the heart of the Appellation Pouilly-Fume (AOC). We also have got some vines in Sancerre, which come from Michelle’s father.
We are vine-growers and producers of pouilly fume which means that we only sell the wine that comes from our own production, contrary to wine-merchant-maturers.
For 12 years now, our children work with us on the estate. After his degree in the viticultural high-school of Mâcon-Davayé, Pierre-François, now directs the workers team in the vineyard. He also manages the making of the wines in the cellar. His sister, Mélanie gives the hand in the cellar during the harvest and supervises the sales of the estate.They are the seventh generation…
The whole team is 9 people in total, working as well in the vines as in the cellar.
