Hidden gem alert. Jean-Philippe Agisson spent ten years as cellar master for Alphonse Mellot at the iconic Domaine de la Moussiere in Sancerre — then was hand-picked by Louis-Benjamin Dagueneau to run the cellar at the legendary Didier Dagueneau estate. In 2017 he launched his own tiny project, just 1.5 hectares total, farmed organically along biodynamic lines, hand-harvested, direct-pressed, aged on lees in older barrels and bottled unfined and unfiltered. "La Belle Endormie" — Sleeping Beauty — is his Pouilly-Fume, from a half-hectare plot of Portlandian limestone, and the name is a wink at the appellation that lives in Sancerre's shadow. This is Pouilly with serious ambition: lees-rich, textural, smoky and stony, the work of one of the Loire's most quietly pedigreed young vignerons.

"Another texturally intriguing effort from Agisson, the 2023 La Belle Endormie is a tranquil style. This floats airily across the palate, as if it's hardly touching it. Despite a challenging vintage, which included controlling the naturally abundant yields and dealing with the odd hail storm and outbreak of mildew, this displays fine purity with a delicate fragrance of lemon, chamomile and honey. The 2023 is approachable from the off." —Rebecca Gibb, MW

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Made for goat cheese (Crottin de Chavignol especially), oysters, raw bar, and grilled white fish with herbs. The smoky-stony side handles smoked salmon and asparagus beautifully.

Tasting Profile

Layered and serious Sauvignon. Pear, gooseberry, white flowers and crushed chalk, with a classic Pouilly smoke-and-flint streak running through. Lees-driven texture, vibrant acidity, long stony finish that lingers.
