Pouilly Fume Caillottes 2023 Domaine du Bouchot

Professional reviews

James Suckling (92)

The aromas of dried citrus and apples need a bit of air to come through, accompanied by gentler floral and fresh-herb notes. The same flavors are more immediate on the medium-bodied palate, where the fruit character is vivid and the minerals are dry and clean. Long, balanced finish. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink now.

The 2023 Caillottes has a bright and sunny disposition. Tasted from tank, two months before bottling, it is a silken, round and full style that partially aged in cigar-shaped barrels and concrete. This is eminently approachable and very finely textured. It displays lovely chalky notes that coat the palate with a fine, powdery texture. An early harvest helped retain acidity, while the chalkiness provides freshness and line. The finish has a lightly herbal nose of elderflower and boxwood.
