2000 Didier Dagueneau Pouilly-Fumé Pur Sang - France, Loire Valley, Upper Loire, Pouilly-Fumé (12/12/2018)
Didier Dagueneau’s wines are always interesting. This was no exception. It was unbelievably fresh for an eighteen year old Sauvignon Blanc. Expressive right out the bottle. Medium yellow color. White flowers and beeswax on the nose. Remarkable mouthfeel and minerality. Over the 2 hours enjoying this wine, citrus, tropical fruit, and light spice notes continued to develop in the glass. Lingering finish. There is definitely Sauvignon Blanc typicity but no way I could have identified this blind as Loire Sauvignon Blanc. Probably would have guessed white Bordeaux. Beautiful wine.
