THE COMPANY

In the historic heart of the appellation Pouilly-Fumé, towards the villages of Pouilly-sur-Loire and Saint Andelain, the Domaine de Bel Air has fifteen hectares of exceptional vineyards, meticulously cared by Katia and Cédric Mauroy, 13th generation of winemakers always looking for quality and sublimation of the terroir. There are three main types of soil: Kimmeridgian marls, containing small oysters, excellent terroirs for the production of great whites, caillottes or criots, terroirs that give fruity and finely balanced wines and then calcareous sands, which, bringing precocious and intense aromas of flowers , fruits and minerals, they reveal all the freshness and subtlety of the vintages. By cultivating the vines according to the principles of the “lutte raisonnée” and respecting every single plot, the Mauroy family interprets its Sauvignons in a masterful way, bringing verticality and purity, undoubtedly among the best of the appellation.
