Pouilly-Vinzelles Les Quarts 2018
A cool, pure and elegant nose reflects notes of petrol, white orchard fruit, floral and pretty citrus wisps. The medium-bodied flavors possess a lovely sense of energy and particularly so in the context of the 2018 vintage, all wrapped in an overtly stony, clean, markedly dry and precise finish. This too is lovely and the mouthfeel is akin to rolling rocks around in the mouth.

Burghound.com is the result of a nearly lifelong passion for the wines of Burgundy. For more than 30 years, I have been collecting the wines and visiting the region. Each year I spend nearly five months visiting, researching, tasting, exploring and evaluating. Burgundy is my obsession really. Expanding on my coverage of the coveted pinot noir grape, each issue provides continuous coverage of both Oregon and California pinot noir, with rotating coverage of Champagne and occasional special reports from other pinot producing regions.
