Of all the centuries-old growths which dominate the majestic river Loire, La Poussie is the jewel of the Sancerre vineyards and the one whose reputation remains unblemished. Its origins can be traced back to the Capetians, as witnessed by a document dating from around 1040. The exceptional vineyard site, shaped in a semi-circle and reminiscent of a natural amphitheater, make it one of the most unique in the world.

The grapes are harvested by hand and sorted for color and perfection. Maceration typically takes between 10 to 20 days. Slow fermentation at 86°F occurs. The wine is raised in vats and oak barrels in variable proportions depending on the vintage.

The color is a bright crimson red. On the nose, there are intense aromas of red berries such as raspberry and black currant, accompanied by notes of smoke, toasted bread and cherry. This wine has a lively, fruity attack in the mouth, and is then round and easy to drink. The complex finish has subtle spicy and woody notes. It has a rich tannic character, which ensures the evolution of the wine.
