Barraud Pouilly-Fuisse Alliance 2010
[14% alcohol]
Organic | A blend of various parcels of land: Terres du Perret, la Côte Carmentrant and Vignes Dessus with vines between 30 and 45 years of age, this is 100% Chardonnay and 100% Pouilly Fuissé -Pouilly Fuisse of the highest order rich in extract, fully scented and ripe with a remarkable density for its size and structure. Apples and pears, a lifted hazelnut aroma across the palate and a fine textural finish whose sea shell mineral and apples kin tannins close with firm handshake –this is seriously good.
