Description
“As I have mentioned before, the Pouilly-Fumé “les Pentes” from Valerie Dagueneau is made from fifty-five year-old vines and is always hand-harvested. The 2022 version is lovely, coming in at a svelte 12.5 percent octane and offering up a refined aromatic panoply of green apple, gooseberry, fresh-cut grass, flinty minerality and a topnote of lime blossoms. On the palate the wine is bright, full-bodied and zesty, with a good core of fruit, lovely soil undertow, a good spine of acidity and fine focus and balance on the long and complex finish. A very refined example of Pouilly-Fumé. 2023-2030″ - 91 points, John Gillman
