Collovray et Terrier 2008 Domaine des Deux Roches Vieilles Vignes Chardonnay (Pouilly-Fuissé)
Great swathes of yellow fruits here, a wine that has weight, richness and delicious texture. Final spice shows through from the wood.

Château de Fuissé 2006 Les Combettes Chardonnay (Pouilly-Fuissé)
-
$58
It’s certainly a rich wine, packed with white fruits, nutmeg, some tight acidity but also an overarching flavor of wood. The fruit is big, weighty, a real mouthful of flavor, very ripe. This single-vineyard wine is certainly at the top of Château de Fuissé’s range.

Full, rounded wine, packed with rich fruits and spice. It has a honeyed edge, followed by pear juice and lime flavors. Delicious wine.

Château de Fuissé 2003 Vieilles Vignes Chardonnay (Pouilly-Fuissé)
-
$50
Blended from 10 plots of vines, all over 30 years of age, with most planted in 1929, this is Château de Fuissé’s ultimate cuvée, and the one intended to have the most longevity. In 2003, it’s incredibly rich and honeyed, with notes of grilled nuts balanced by fresh peach and melon flavors. Long on the finish. Drink now–2015. Imported by Frederick Wildman and Sons, Ltd.

Domaine Robert-Denogent 2002 Cuvée Claude Denogent Chardonnay (Pouilly-Fuissé)
-
$38
Very closed after its recent bottling, but shows even more length, minerality and finesse than Robert-Denogent’s other bottlings. I’ve no doubt it will emerge in several years even better. An incredible Pouilly-Fuissé. Imported by Kermit Lynch.
