Not as good as memories of older vintages, but a cool wine. Maybe my first since Didier's passing. Muscadine vibes and quite intelligent. Never got boring.
Maybe this was better a year or two back.

Such a unique wine. Very balanced acidity and so much minerality that I feel like it’s borderline savoury. Kept for three days and still tasted very well after three days in the fridge

Issu d’une parcelle, au lieu dit La Folie, petites argiles et silex composent le sol de ce Pouilly Fumé, passé en Vin de France depuis, élevages assez longs et sur lies, qui donnent du volume au vin dans sa jeunesse… Le vin ici garde un caractère assez variétal avec des notes de buis, mais surtout de noisette et de pétrole, à la façon d’un Riesling, mais supportable comme l’indique une convive :). La bouche est très fraiche et tendue, complexe avec une très belle longueur. TB+
EN Version :)
From the la Folie Lot, slates and clay, which was PF and now VDF...
The nose is quite funky with both varietal sauvignon, as boxwood and cat pee like but with some kerosene style as a Riesling could be...
palate is fresh, long, delicate, a bit "simple" but very much present and long !!! Very Good wine

A very pretty and elegant win and even now at age 10 continues to deliver having lost none of its vigor. Soft floral, nice evolution on the fruit but very much bright still from the bright glossy color to the energy on the palate. Very pretty wine and full of charm albeit a softer expression so one needs to lie the style too. 92-93
