La Doucette Pouilly-Fumé 2018 Loire Valley

Tasting Notes: Excellent complexity that translates into great and elegant richness. Nice attack, straight and bright, it takes place with elegance on fruity notes associated with a dense structure and a beautiful acidity which brings a great length in the end of the mouth. There are aromas of exotic fruits (litchi, mango).

Famous in the Loire and throughout the world for perfumed Sauvignon Blanc, Pouilly-Fume sits due east, across the Loire River from Sancerre.  Limestone soils with clay and flint (also called silex) contribute to the wines' freshness and often times smoky, flinty, mineral character.
