Fresh quartz, minerals, and sea salt are found in the aromatic profile of the 2002 Pouilly-Fuisse La Verchere Vieilles Vignes. Gorgeously detailed and precise, this wine pops on the palate. Displaying minerals, crystals, tangy apples, red currants, and spices, it is a profound, complex, magnificently balanced wine. Importer: North Berkeley Imports, Berkeley, CA; tel.

(from a warm, south-facing site on classic argilo-calcaire soil) Nose shows an almost exotic ripeness, with aromas of peach, nectarine and wet stone. Sweet, fat, full and powerful, with intense flavors of orange peel and vineyard peach. Wonderfully fat, chewy and rich, but youthfully firm and minerally on the building aftertaste. Classic Pouilly-Fuisse in need of some time in bottle.
