Domaine Robert-Denogent Pouilly-Fuisse Vieilles Vignes La Croix 2015 [VM 90]

“Bright, light yellow. Very ripe yellow fruits and menthol on the nose. A rather mellow, smooth fruit bomb with stone fruit and orange flavors nicely framed and extended by ripe old-vines acidity. Lovely peachy, rich-but-dry wine with serious material and a persistent finish that avoids dryness and heat.” Vinous 90 Points

“The 2016 Pouilly Fuisse la Croix Vieilles Vignes comes from vines averaging around 75 years old that tend to be the first to be harvested at the domaine. Matured in 15% new oak, it has a primal grapefruit, quince and overripe Satsumas on the nose that is complex and generous. The palate is very well balanced with a compelling seam of spice, hints of fresh ginger with a brisk, quite saline finish. This is another 2016 with great potential” Wine Advocate 90 Points
