Tasting notes
The 2019 Pouilly-Fuissé Clos des Prouges, from clay soils, has an elegant nose with touches of brioche and white chocolate infusing the citrus fruit. This is more understated than their Le Clos. The palate is very concentrated, a powerful and assertive Pouilly-Fuissé with fine salinity towards the finish. Maybe I discern a little more nuance and mineralité in the Le Clos, yet this is still a fine wine to drink over the next decade.

The 2019 Pouilly-Fuissé Tête de Cru Clos des Prouges is lovely, mingling aromas of citrus oil, pear, fresh bread, green apple and nutmeg in an inviting bouquet. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and elegantly muscular, its enveloping attack segues into a bright, precise finish.
Tank sample. Very rich and opulent on the nose. Rather like old-fashioned barrel-fermented Chardonnay with a little spiciness. Great stuff so long as you like the style. A little tension on the end and no hurry to drink. (JR)
