Like for a “Grand Cru”, the terroir of Pouilly gives a richness and a complex aromatic palate to this wine. The lively acidity and the mineral notes (chalky and flinty) are balanced by delicious flavours of citrus, pear, quince and green plum fruits but also white flowers and white peppers. It shows a very nice persistence on the finish. With its structure “La Demoiselle de Bourgeois” may age in bottle for 8 to 10 years.  Like its name, this wine is a model of pure and delicate expression of the Sauvignon Blanc.

After a gentle pressing and 24 hours settling, 85% of the must is fermented in thermo-regulated stainless steel tanks at 15 to 18°C. The remaining 15% are fermented in 600 litres oak barrels. This subtle blending gives a great complexity to the wine. Maturation takes place on fine lees for 9 to 10 months before bottling.
