Domaine Chollet, Pouilly-sur-Loire

For over sixty years, the Chollet family has been crafting exceptional Pouilly Fumé, a legacy now carried forward by Séverin and his sister Milène. Since 2024, the domaine has been certified organic, marking a new chapter in its commitment to quality and sustainability. Their 14 hectares of vineyards span the region’s three key terroirs—Sables (clay-siliceous), Caillottes (clay-limestone), and Terres Blanches (Kimmeridgian marls)—each contributing its own distinctive character to the wines.

A sleek, state-of-the-art winery has recently been completed, allowing for even greater precision in vinification and aging, with everything now handled in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The estate’s flagship Pouilly Fumé is a harmonious blend of all three terroirs, delivering a classic expression of the appellation with aromas of white flowers, ripe stone fruit, and a signature smoky flintiness. Meanwhile, the ‘Caillottes’ cuvée offers a more focused, intense profile, showcasing deeper mineral complexity and a refined, chiselled structure.
