The intention for thoughtfulness and complexity is not a gimmick but a reality in the wines of Champagne Pouillon. Grown in the Grand Cru village of Mareuil-Sur-Ay in the Vallee de la Marne (as well as other terroirs in Marne and Montagne des Reims), the grapes of Fabrice Pouillon are meticulously and organically farmed, even utilizing some biodynamic principles. This careful process results in expressive, intricately structured wines that evolve on the palate and evoke the character of their individual terroir.
Fabrice joined the family business in 1998, and he quickly began working to convert the vineyards to biodynamic viticulture, with an eye to improving the overall health of the fruit. His care for quality extends to his winemaking, where all juice flows via gravity into their vessel, where they are allowed to ferment naturally. Even the pressings are done carefully, in fractional steps, a departure from most in Champagne who care more about speed than exacting quality. The results are stupendous: both freshness and concentration of flavor abound.
