Made by David Maudry, son of Patrick Maudry of Domaine de Fontenille, in Tracy-Sur-Loire, from vines directly next to their Pouilly-Fume vines. This is from young vines, but a vineyard not classified at Pouilly-Fume. The struck-flint note is evident on the pallet, and then a nice elegance and gentle tang. Pouilly-Fume (and Sancerre) continue to escalate in price and this is a great value alternative with hardly any discernible difference in quality. This wine is unbelievably good with shellfish.
