Pur Sang Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc 2012

Clearly a Sauvignon Blanc, which isn’t always a positive note for me, but the 12’ Pur Sang radiated such energy and clarity that made it impossible to not fall in love with. Aromas of pineapple, lemon, gooseberry, and fragrant white florals intertwined with subtle vanilla. On the palate, a delicate fruit sweetness was perfectly counterbalanced by herbal nuances and piercing, superb acidity, along with a crystalline texture and mineral backbone. Wicked wine as it is now, but it could easily spend more time on its side. — a month ago

Sancerre Pinot Noir 2021

Red from Sancerre. Will wonders never cease? What’s impressive about this effort is how the mild and sunny weather of Loire did not over cook this wine. The flavors are strong, but restrained. It tastes like a lot of work went into getting an excellent balance of cherry, pencil shavings and lively acidity. Serving it a little chilled enhances the experience. — 5 months ago

Silex Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc 2019

Delectable Wine
9.3

The 2019 Pouilly Fumé Silex shows an initial tenderness, sitting quietly and not shouting that it's made it into your glass. This is a wine that has its act together, feeling integrated and balanced with plentiful concentration and a savory long finish. A delicate dill note, which is a characteristic of oaked Sauvignon peeks out amid the hush. (Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, August 2022)

Buisson Renard Pouilly- Fumé Sauvignon Blanc 2020

All about texture. Viscous and luscious, very shy in the nose but pristine in the harmony between tight yet ripe herbal character, minerality and nutty bitterness. Long finish. Needs time to develop intensity — 4 months ago

Blanc Etc... Sauvignon Blanc 2020

Purity is the first word that comes to mind, it’s probably the most restrained yet ripe sauv blanc I’ve ever had. The oak is pretty hard to detect, it plays in the background complementing the faint vegetal notes through the low toast character, it is so well integrated that I will not be able to tease it apart from the fruit and minerality. Extremely well-made, hard to justify the price considering it’s so linear it still drinks like a base wine (though excellent!) though maybe time will add complexity. I hope I never get this in a blind tasting, I would have no clue. It really is its own thing — 4 months ago
