Domaine AlainCailbourdin LES CRIS Pouilly Fume
Description: In this exceptional winegrowing region, just two hours south of Paris, Carmen and Alain have patiently put together their estate over the last fifteen years. Building up a superb collection of plots on some of the finest slopes of Pouilly-sur-Loire their approach respects the soil and the environment of these vineyards that face the Loire. Picked on a limestone, south-west-facing hillside, this racy vintage is the most typical of the range.The 'Cris' is the local term to describe 'pebbly limestone sown with vines'. The aromatic range, full of elegance, first releases some fruity then mineral tones. After 1 or 2 years, these tastes become more refined, taking on more and more the imprint of the local earth. The impression in the mouth is powerful, woody, and outstandingly mellow. There is excellent balance, thanks to a perfect maturity of the grapes. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £137.05

Building up a superb collection of plots on some of the finest slopes of Pouilly-sur-Loire their approach respects the soil and the environment of these vineyards that face the Loire. From vineyards on the typical limestone clay hillsides of the Pouilly vineyard , these wines draw their strength from the old local earth. Taking a bit longer to peak than limestone hill wines, they express their full strength after one year of maturing. Aromas of white flowers are followed by nuances of blackcurrant bud, finishing with clear mineral airs. The expression in the mouth is virile, powerful and long and this Pouilly Fume is meant for people who are looking for full, rich and generous wines. Classic 'gunflint' nose, with an elegant dry palate which goes on and on. American wine guru, R. Parker, rates Cailbourdin as an 'outstanding' producer. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £119.88
