Pouilly-Fumé “Les Cailloux Silex” 2017 90 WE May19

The small hamlet of Saint-Andelain is the source of this wine. Planted on flinty soil, the grapes give out a strongly mineral character, tightly textured at this young stage. The wine is full, ripe with herbal and yellow-fruit flavors comfortably combined. Drink from 2020. Taub Family Selections. —R.V.
