2007 Pouilly-Fumé and Sancerre Vintage Report

A difficult vintage and a mixed growing season which presented mildew problems
for growers who had not managed their vineyards well. Fortunately those who did
benefited from a warm September that enabled the grapes to ripen fully, producing
stunning Sauvignon Blancs, particularly where growers restricted their yields and
made a careful selection of grapes. Sancerre’s are a little leaner than Pouilly-Fumés
due to a little more rain falling in the Sancerre region

The message for those who are buying this 2007 PF & S Vintage from current UK stocks, when the pound had not fallen 30% against the Euro is:

Spend a bit more to get twice as much satisfaction.

As usual, do your research to avoid disappointment.
