Olivier Merlin, Pouilly Fuisse Clos De France other_regions_australia and a very solid backup

and a very solid backup of apricot and peach melba

(worked entirely by hand as the vineyard has a 40% south-facing slope which ensures that it receives plenty of sun)

there is very good freshness and verve to the nicely delineated medium weight flavors that are also very dry and slightly austere

this just makes one feel like drinking it

noble woods and white spices

Olivier Merlin, Pouilly Fuisse Clos De France other_regions_australia and a very solid backup(from Vergisson). More subtle wood toast is present on the moderately reduced nose so be sure to give this some air if youre tempted to try a bottle young. Otherwise, there is fine richness to the succulent and caressing middleweight flavors that also conclude in a citrusy and bone dry finish that is better balanced. Worth considering provided you can give it a few years of cellaring.
