Bernard Fouquet, Domaine des Aubuisières

Fouquet, a young, bearded, quiet-spoken man, is making some of the most serious Vouvray of the last few vintages. He is now regarded in France and the international press as one of the top three Vouvray producers, and his wines represent sensational value. No one succeeds better than Bernard in capturing the mineral tones unique to Vouvray’s soil, with the marvelous balance of explosive fruit and titillating sensation of the Chenin Blanc grape.

Rated by Jacqueline Friedrich, in her book on the Loire, as one of the top growers in Vouvray.
