Raw energy and mineral precision define this taut expression. Citrus peel, green herbs and smoky oak weave through a lean, driving palate. The finish shows chalky grip and persistent salinity. Built for the cellar. This needs years to flesh out its austere frame.

→The late Didier Dagueneau remade Pouilly-Fumé's reputation almost single-handedly, pushing Sauvignon Blanc to a seriousness few thought possible in the Loire. His estate remains one of France's most closely watched addresses for white wine.
