Medium deep gold colour with fragrant nose of gooseberry, ripe peach, pear, lime, honey suckle with some smokey butter, vanilla and honey. Dry medium full body with crisp acidity and, even though it's a white wine, some discrete tannins. In the mouth, more notes of peach, Asian pear, key lime pie with some oaky smoke, and light butter as well as a honey nut long finish. Very nice. Pouilly-fumé is such a different but interesting expression of sauvignon blanc!

One of the greatest wines I've ever tasted. Multifaceted aroma and and a bit floral aftertaste. Must try.

Loved it. Very mineral and crisp. Had it with Indian food at Red Fort in Soho, London.

2011 vintage. Very well made and extremely minerally. Could almost pass for Graves when first opened. Not your typical Pouilly-Fumé.
