Château du Pouey
Located in the Southwest, Château du Pouey is a family estate situated on south and southeast-facing slopes overlooking the Pyrenees mountain range. The vineyard now covers approximately 22 hectares, having started on a much smaller area.
The estate played a pioneering role in introducing grape varieties such as Petit Manseng and Gros Manseng to the region. The vines are cultivated using sustainable viticulture practices, with particular attention paid to preserving natural balances and ensuring consistent ripening. The soils, composed of clay and gravel, offer ideal conditions for a variety of expressions, depending on the plot and its exposure.
The wines are crafted with a focus on lusciousness and controlled richness, without striving for standardization. Vinification and aging are carried out to preserve the expression of the fruit and the typicity of the grape varieties, offering profiles ranging from supple and fruity wines to more structured cuvées.
