Description

1 bottle from the late, great Didier Dagueneau.

"Tightly wound, with a lot in reserve, this has a piercing minerality that leads the way for floral, lemon verbena, lime, salted butter and thyme notes. Very long on the finish and very precise."

Winespectator: 96 points

"...the late Didier Dagueneau’s 2005 Pouilly Fumé Silex is about as great an example of this wine as one can find. Crushed rock, lemon blossom, quince, and melon notes are all present in this full-bodied yet gorgeously focused, fresh white that is full yet zesty."

Robert Parker erobertparker.com June 2009: 95 points

"Light straw color. Slow building nose keeps improving as it aerates. Notes include quince, bubble gum, smoke, and honeysuckle. Huge, thick, complex, youthful, and totally compelling on the palate. This wine has great acidity that keeps it lively, particularly through the middle palate. There’s a wonderful core of intense, ripe fruit, minerals, alcohol, and smoky volcanic ash. This is a delicious wine! The finish is long, with mint and yeast notes becoming more prominent."

EWS Tasting erobertparker.com July 2009: 96 points

"His 2005 Blanc Fumé de Pouilly Silex leads off with an amazing aromatic amalgam of pineapple, lime, grapefruit, passion fruit, peppermint, white currant, chalk dust, and a diverse array of herbs and flowers. Carpeting the palate with more of the same, it also adds hints of resin and rich suggestions of caramelized parsnip. Plush, polished, and remarkably poised, this wine’s luscious richness of fruit somewhat sublimates obvious minerality, but then, arguably certain sorts of effusive fruit and perfume constitute precisely the terroir character of flint soils in the Loire. Certainly this remains transparent, and not without delicacy of citrus and flowers as well as a certain lightness of touch, even as it finishes with ravishing refinement and memorable length."
