Karine Lauverjat Pouilly-Fume

The Lauverjat family has been growing grapes in the Loire Valley for generations in the tiny village of Sury-en-Vaux. Husband-and-wife team Christian and Karine have 12-hectares of vines in Sancerre and Pouilly-Fume.

Sourced from 30+ year old vineyards across the river from Sancerre, Christian and Karine have crafted an open and expressive version of Sauvignon Blanc that keeps the bright aromatics with a playful, fruit forward palate, while maintaining that "fume" smokiness. Take the seriousness of the French, blend it with the modern approach of New Zealand, and you have this amazing Sauvignon Blanc
