92pts Wine Spectator
Rich and creamy in texture, this offers flavors of white flowers, peach and melon, backed by mineral and pastry accents. Lively and beautifully balanced, this has a long aftertaste of lemon and baking spices.
91pts James Suckling
This is a creamy Pouilly-Fuissé showing custard, vanilla pastries, apricots and hazelnuts on the nose. Medium- to full-bodied, rounded and supple with a soft finish. Blend of chardonnay from five lieu-dits in the village of Pouilly. Drink now.
91pts Vinous
The 2022 Pouilly-Fuissé has a clean and precise bouquet, tightly knit, green apple and hints of lime coming through. The palate is well balanced with a lemony opening. Harmonious, this Pouilly-Fuissé packs the quality more in the mouth than on the nose. Fine purity on the finish. Drink this over the next 5-6 years.
Tasting Notes
From a charming vintage, this Pouilly has notes of lemon and white flowers with great volume on the palate and strong structure plus notes of flint and floral.
Winery Notes
Domaine du Roc des Boutires has 11 acres (4.2 hectares) on an east-west oriented strip at the same latitude of the village of Pouilly on Jurassic limestone interlaced with clay and shale, the same substratum as the Premier and Grands Crus of the Côte d’Or. The vines of Chardonnay, mostly planted in the beginning of the ‘70s, are flowering here with the greatest respect for the natural environment. All wines come from the estate vineyard exclusively.
The flagship wine of the Domain, sitting in the heart of the appellation with low yielded “vielles vignes” located at the southern end of Bourgogne.
