Review:
"This is a beautiful, terroir-centric wine. A basket of yellow apples sits on a bed of dried field grass dusted with fresh herbs, baby's breath and chamomile blossoms. The layered palate is textured with flavor depth that invokes dew-coated forest floor, green-apple peel and lemon citrus. — Reggie Solomon" - Wine Enthusiast (April 2025), 90 pts
Bihan Le Pouilly-Fume is made from 100 percent Sauvignon Blanc.
Its aromas: white flowers (hawthorn and acacia flowers), followed by hints of black current buds, pineapple, apricot or white peaches, depending on the year, with clear mineral notes in the finish. After a couple of years, aromas often evolve to quince and mango. On the palate, it is virile, powerful and long lasting. This Pouilly Fumé is for wine lovers who appreciate full, rich and generous wines.
Pair with seafood, lobster, fish and white meat. Goat cheese is a perfect match too!
