Tasting notes
The 2022 Pouilly-Fuissé Les Combes Vieilles Vignes comes from 80-90-year-old vines from three separate plots that are picked three times. Clean and precise on the nose, this has impressive mineralité and tension. The terroir really shows through here. The palate is taut and tensile. Chamomile touches infuse the orchard fruit, and the clay soils impart weight towards the finish. Enjoy this over the next decade.

The 2022 Pouilly-Fuissé Les Combes Vieilles Vignes was picked in three "tries"—that's to say, successive passages through the vineyard selecting only the ripest fruit. Revealing aromas of pear, toasted nuts, citrus zest, white flowers, beeswax and nutmeg, it's medium to full-bodied, with a satiny attack that segues into an elegantly fleshy palate built around racy acids and concluding with a long, saline finish.
