Ripe grapefruit and nettles on the nose, following through to a medium-bodied, silky palate, where the juice turns more lemony, though the light pithy grapefruit grip remains and, together with dry minerals gives a tight, structured finish. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Super-clean and zippy sauvignon. Drink now.

The 2020 Pouilly Fume Caillottes is not your classically aromatic style of Pouilly Fume. It is rather savory and subtle in its expression with some white stone fruit notes. There is a sense of ripeness and richness, but perhaps it's a little ripe with the alcohol at more than 14%, there's a heat on the finish, detracting from the overall harmony.
