This Pouilly-Fuissé is a light, creamy Chardonnay, with vivid lemon and green plum flavors. Fresh and lightly yeasty, its fruit is right up front, and with the vanilla from wood aging far in the background.
From the Wine Maker – “Pale golden yellow. Rich and intense bouquet with toasty and vanilla aromas. Superb wine, full-bodied with a long creamy aftertaste.”
Great with Appetizers such as; baked goat cheese, crab cakes, escargots that are saute’ed with garlic, smoked fish or shellfish, oysters on the half-shell, chicken or goose liver pate’s. Cream style cheeses like cottage, cream cheese, or fromage blanc, goat cheese, mozzarella, semi-hard cheeses like mild Cheddar, Fontina, Jarlsberg, Swiss or Gouda, soft rind cheeses like Brie.
