Olivier Giroux is the young winemaker here who has helped rescue the high quality fruit and vineyards of this estate from the anonymity of the local co-op. The Pouilly-Fuisse - less than a hectare and brilliantly sited on limestone clay vineyards - has lovely stonefruit and floral notes. The acidity is fine and beautifully integrated into the wine as is the deftly used oak. Charming wine and very versatile with food. (CW 23/12/14)

Julia Harding
Clear citrus aroma with a light oak overlay and an attractive stony character. Lively, balanced, a little watery on the mid palate. 15.5 points
