Notes from the producer:

"Son and grandson of Jean Pabiot, Alain and Jérôme manage the Domaine des Fines Caillottes. Planted with the Sauvignon Blanc grape variety, the Domaine covers 30 hectares (75 acres), i.e. 30 parcels of different sizes spread over 5 district areas within the Pouilly-Fumé appellation.

The terroirs, mainly clay limestone, are therefore very varied: white limestone pebbles known as "caillottes", marl with small fossilized oysters (kimmeridgian) and flint. This diversity of terroirs gives the estate’s wines their aromatic complexity.

Our underground cellar dates from the 19th century. In this exceptional setting, the temperature variations are minimal. Originally, these are eight separate galleries that Jean Pabiot began to communicate in 1947. Today, by combining technology and tradition, we have kept this ideal framework for the production and conservation of wines while allowing it to be functional.

Cuvee notes: "Kiméride" comes from Kimmeridgian, time of the geological formation of this soil. This cuvee is a selection of parcels from this terroir whose limestone stones are strewn with fossils (ammonites, small oysters, etc.). We produce this cuvee only with the best vintages. We exclude from this cuvee the grapes from young vines. Richness, concentration, elegance and intense aromas of ripe fruit characterize this Pouilly-Fumé which expresses the quintessence of Sauvignon blanc."
