Pouilly-Fuisse ‘Vieilles Vignes’, Sebastien Giroux, Burgundy, France 2020
This is what a flinty white Burgundy should taste like, a symphony of citrus fruits, underpinned by that ineffable mineral quality that defines the region, a mouthwatering, cool-climate refinement and layers of intricate, delicate flavours that call to mind grapefruit and white peach and millefeuille pastry. 13.5% alc. Drink now-2030.
Press review:
The Wine Advocate: “Giroux's 2020 Pouilly-Fuissé Vieilles Vignes has also turned out nicely, offering up aromas of golden orchard fruit, buttery pastry, lemon curd and white flowers. Medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, with lively acids and a vibrant, fleshy profile, this is another cuvée that has gained in precision in recent vintages. Drink now-2032.” 93+ points
