2016 Pouilly-Fuissé Tête de Cru Château-Fuissé, Burgund

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2016 Pouilly-Fuissé Tête de Cru, Château-Fuissé

A blend of multiple parcels that's bottled under nomacorc and constitutes the estate's entry-level cuvée, the 2016 Pouilly-Fuissé Tête de Cru offers up notes of orchard fruit, verbena, pastry cream and struck match. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, satiny and elegant, with moderate concentration and a chalky finish. It's a pretty wine, but to my palate, it's well worth paying the comparatively small premium for the Domaine's grander bottlings. - William Kelley, Aug. 2018

Wine Spectator - 2016 Pouilly-Fuissé Tête de Cru, Château-Fuissé

Defined flavors of apple, lemon and mineral are deftly shaded by spicy oak in this tightly knit white that's intense and long, with an equilibrium that should gain cohesion over the next year or so. Best from 2020 through 2027. 8,200 cases made. - Jul. 2018

Allen Meadows' Burghound - 2016 Pouilly-Fuissé Tête de Cru, Château-Fuissé

A discreet application of wood sets off smoky and slightly honeyed aromas of pear compote, mandarin orange and soft floral wisps. There is solid size, weight and mid-palate density to the delicious middle weight flavors that possess fine depth and length on the refreshing finish. - Allen Meadows, Okt. 2018
