Les Heritiers du Comte Lafon 'En Chatenay' Pouilly-Fuisse 2022 750 ML
The Pouilly-Fuissé from Les Héritiers du Comte Lafon hails from a parcel of fifty-plus year-old vines in the lieu à dit of En Chatenay in the village of Vergisson. The soils here are clay and iron over the mother rock of limestone. The wine is aged in used casks for twelve months, prior to racking to stainless steel tank for six more months of elevage prior to bottling. The 2018 En Chatenay offers up a lovely, youthful bouquet of apple, white peach, almond, a fine base of soil tones, a touch of iodine and a beautifully discreet foundation of buttery oak. On the palate the wine is deep, pure and full-bodied, with a lovely core of fruit, excellent mineral drive and grip and a long, nascently complex and racy finish. The girdle of acidity here is simply outstanding for a 2018 Mâconnais wine! This is first rate Pouilly-Fuissé! 2020-2040. 93-
