2022 Guffens-Heynen, Pouilly-Fuisse, 1er Jus des Hauts de Vignes

“The 2022 Pouilly-Fuissé Premier Jus des Hauts de Vignes includes all the first press juice (with the lower pH and highest acidity) from Guffens’s high-altitude holdings, including Les Croux and the final vintage of the domaine’s sharecropping in La Roche, two superior sites which were both sadly hailed this year. Offering up aromas of orange zest, pear, white currants and peach mingled with white flowers, fresh pastry and youthful reduction, it’s full-bodied, fleshy and concentrated, with racy acids and lots of chalky structuring extract, concluding with a long, penetrating finish. ” – William Kelley
