This great dry white wine expresses the quintessence of the Chardonnay
grape through its elegance and its fruit. It may be enjoyed in a number of
different ways and different circumstances. When young, its greeny-gold
colour and nose of acacia and hawthorn flowers qualify it to be drunk as
a pre-dinner drink. Its freshness reveals aromas of peach and lemon or
grapefruit. After 3 to 5 years in the bottle (depending on the vintage), its
gold turns to amber and more complex notes emerge, ranging from pear
and apricot to quince and dried fruits, hazelnut or toasted almond, or even
gingerbread. There is wide variation between Climats in this appellation so
Pouilly-Loché may turn out opulent and silky or friskier and more mineral.
In any case, it always retains its balanced structure which ensures a long
finish in the mouth.
