Ladoucette Baron de L, Pouilly Fume
£74.99Price
On the nose it is a harmonious blend of strength and freshness with orange peel, grapefruit, beeswax and floral hints. On the palate the fruit is full and elegant showing a mineral complexity combined with herbaceous fruit and zesty acidity. The length is extraordinary and makes Baron de L one of the finest expressions of Sauvignon Blanc. Unlike other Sauvignon Blancs it has the potential to age for 5-10 years and above.
