About this Item

2008 Pouilly-Fumé
2 (1 x 2) 750ml

Winemaker Notes: Pale golden-green color. Considerable intensity on the nose. It has an exceptional full range of floral, exotic and citrus fruit aromas such as white blossoms, hawthorn, broom and white nettles and grapefruit. These notes are enhanced and strengthened by the mineral note of gunflint (flint stone heated by the sun). The flavor is pleasant and lively, tempered by a fruity roundness with notes of pear, green apples and citrus fruits, which boost the mineral and stony hardness of gunflint.

Private Client

Critics Ratings

‘This shows mature green almond, plantain and butter flavors, but stays fresh, with lingering straw and gooseberry notes still flashing through the finish. Very tasty. Drink now.’ - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 90/100 (Dec 2011)
