A clean, precise entry, beautifully balancing natural acidity with well-integrated ageing. The fine, delicate texture is enhanced by a subtle mineral and chalky character, adding depth and elegance. |

The 2023 Pouilly-Fuissé Mise en Bouche expresses the pure elegance of chardonnay, showcasing its perfect ripeness with vibrant freshness and delicate notes of honeysuckle and subtle oak. On the palate, it strikes a harmonious balance between natural acidity, body, and its refined aging, with a refreshing mineral and chalky profile. Surprisingly approachable now, it promises to evolve beautifully over the next 5 to 7 years, or even longer for true enthusiasts. Perfect alongside garlic-parsley chicken, tempura prawns, or a selection of goat cheeses. A standout choice, awarded 93/100 and a Top Pick from our tasting committee. |
