Château de Tracy is a historic wine estate, regarded by many as one of the finest producers of Sauvignon Blanc in the Loire. Château de Tracy’s Pouilly-Fumé remains a benchmark of the appellation, elegant, precise, and deeply expressive, it captures the purity and complexity of Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc at its finest.
In the glass, it opens with a lifted bouquet of white flowers, lime blossom, grapefruit zest, and fresh-cut grass, underpinned by subtle flinty minerality, a hallmark of the Kimmeridgian and silex-rich soils. On the palate, the wine is vibrant and beautifully balanced, delivering layers of citrus, green apple, and gooseberry, wrapped in a fine, chalky texture. Crisp acidity provides tension and drive, while a smoky nuance lingers gracefully on the long, refreshing finish. A poised, terroir-driven wine that speaks clearly of its noble origins.
The estate is renowned for its traditional and sustainable vineyard practices, characterised by a deep respect for biodiversity and soil health. The 2023 vintage reflects a cool, balanced growing season that favoured slow ripening, preserving aromatic intensity and freshness. Fermented and aged in stainless steel to retain purity, this wine is a classic expression of terroir-driven Sauvignon Blanc, offering both precision and longevity.
