Saumur Les Pouches La Porte Saint Jean 2017
The wine
A rising star of the Loire vineyards, Porte Saint-Jean has produced a white Saumur with a crystalline appearance which exudes delicate notes of white-fleshed fruit, white flowers and chalk. Despite its freshness on the palate, it can be kept in the cellar for a number of years.
Sylvain Dittière learnt the ropes with influential winemakers: from Gauby to Thierry Germain, Château Yvonne and finally Clos Rougeard. It's therefore natural that this talented producer – son-in-law of the late Charly Foucauld – set up shop in 2011 in Montreuil-Bellay. He chose the domain for its very cool cellars, ideal for long élevages. He makes red and white wines which showcase the purity of his fruit and masterful élevages.
