Domaine Pascal & Mireille Renaud
Vieilles Vignes Pouilly-Fuissé Chardonnay
The nose just gives off a brightness that reminds me of wines from the late 70s and early 89s from the Maconnais but that seems rare these days. Buckets of crisp apple and white peach, a little straw, wet clay-like minerality. Deeply flavored in the mouth, with an initial whack of fruit before low-toned mineral earth notes take over. Bright acids to propel the whole thing along. Really nice!
