Tasted blind with friends who thought more in the Alsatian dry Riesling or Pinot Blanc spectrum. I can taste why: has a thick mouthfeel & density of that area, & the Sauvignon Blanc Is a bit of a Zelig as it warms up. Very, very good.

Spot-on Pouilly Fumé. Green, herbal, smoky and assertive but avoids being rude.

The best of 4 cuvées from this producer. Lively, mineral-driven and steely. Fine example of Pouilly-Fumé without 2nd mortgage.
