Ladoucette, Pouilly Fume Baron L Vintage:2017 Note that my rating assumesShows power and length, with an alluring mix of orchard fruit and creamed apple flecked with sweet hay and honeysuckle. Still refreshing and vibrant, with fresh cut chive, smoke and flint shavings on a persistent finish marked by brioche and fleur de sel. Drink now through 2027. 375 cases imported.
