The roots of Domaine Régis Minet were originally established in 1937 by Robert Minet, an artisan ‘tonnelier’ (cooper) who also was in charge of his family’s farm and who cultivated their own vegetables and livestock. Though Robert only began with 1.5 hectares of vines, he eventually extended to 3 hectares. When he unexpectedly passed away in 1976, his son Régis, who was only 17 at the time, courageously took over and has never looked back. Through his passion and determination, he slowly expanded the domaine to 11 hectares, modernised the winemaking cellars and launched his wines into export markets. From the Pouilly Fumé soils that are rich in fossilised minerals and flint, he produces 3 different Sauvignon Blancs, including his Vieilles Vignes (old vines) which is his flagship wine. His 2019 embodies the minerality of the region paired with the richness of the vintage. Expressive but focused with lots of green apple, pineapple, lime zest and elderflower
Pouilly Fumé is a delicious Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire, and this one has notable minerality and tends have smokier undertones than Sancerre which come from the silex (flint) soils in this region. With flavours of elderflower, green apple, and hints of pineapple and lime, this is a great accompaniment to cheesy creamy pasta dishes as well as shellfish and other fish, poultry, and great with blue cheese.
