Didier Dagueneau Blanc etc. 2020

White
Pouilly-Fumé, France
7.8
WineSaint

Honeyed richness meets crystalline precision on this expressive Pouilly-Fumé. Golden orchard fruit and brioche textures unfold with remarkable depth, while the flinty minerality from those clay soils provides serious backbone. Three years in, the wine has found its stride. Opulent yet focused.

Didier Dagueneau

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.
