"The 2020 Blanc etc. is developing into a mellow style with the richness of the vintage showing. It is what the French would call gourmand and, close to three years after being harvested, has entered a delectable stage of its evolution. Yes, it's still young but has improved and opened up since tasting a year ago. It now offers baked apple, honey and pastry flavors while retaining freshness. It is long and concentrated with a firm sense of structure, doing the mouth equivalent of providing a firm, reassuring handshake, likely due to the clay-flint soils, which make up two-thirds of the blend."
Winemaker Notes:
"A blend from several vineyards of younger vines. Barrel-fermented and aged half in stainless steel and half in large, neutral barrels. Includes fruit from Pur Sang, Buisson Renard and Silex cuvées. Easily the most famous domaine in Pouilly Fume, Dagueneau is known world wide for Sauvignon Blanc that is layered, complex and very age-worthy. This is the "entry" level cuvee. Simply the best Pouilly-Fumé produced."
