From the village of Pouilly-sur-Loire, the fumé in the name is from the flinty soil, which gives the wine a gun-smoke aroma. The Blondelet family vinify each terroir separately, and their Villa Paulus is from Kimmeridgian marl (white clay and fossilized shells) giving good minerality. The richness comes from time on lees.

Pierre & Melanie Masson
14 generations of wine producers can be traced through the Blondelet family tree. Such deep-rooted heritage is a fundamental reason behind the quality of Domaine Masson Blondelet, as Jean-Michel Masson and his family have high personal reputations for quality to uphold. They make, bottle and sell their wine from their 21Ha estate in the heart of the Pouilly-Fumé appellation. They are on south and south–east facing slopes, and enjoy a microclimate caused by the river Loire, which protects them from extreme variations in temperature. Today, Jean-Michel’s son, Pierre-Francois, is taking over the reins in the winery while his daughter, Melanie, looks after the sales and administration side of things. From our point of view, it looks like this family affair is set to last a few generations into the future.
