Domaine De Ladoucette Baron de L Pouilly Fume 2017
$182.99
Pouilly-Fumé, originating from the eastern side of France's Loire Valley, stands as a testament to the elegance and complexity that Sauvignon Blanc can achieve. The appellation's name, "Fumé," which translates to "smoky," alludes to the characteristic gunflint aroma that these wines often exhibit. This unique aroma is attributed to the silex (flint) soils that dominate the region. The wine's vibrant acidity is beautifully balanced with flavors of green apple, citrus, and sometimes even hints of passionfruit. With its bright, pale gold hue, Pouilly-Fumé offers a visual treat that matches its aromatic and flavorful allure. This wine's aging potential, often enhanced by its minerality, means it can be enjoyed fresh or allowed to develop more nuanced flavors over time. Often considered a benchmark for Sauvignon Blanc globally, Pouilly-Fumé has garnered appreciation from connoisseurs and casual drinkers alike, symbolizing the epitome of Loire Valley winemaking.
