Note di degustazione
Somewhat reminiscent in its overall balance and style of Guffens's extraordinary 2002 Petit Croux, the 2017 Pouilly-Fuissé Premiers Jus des Croux unwinds in the glass with aromas of pear, waxy citrus, toasted hazelnuts, freshly baked bread, beeswax and smoky reduction. Full-bodied, satiny and seamless, it's deep and layered, marrying huge depth with unerring precision, concluding with a long, palate-staining finish. Readers lucky enough to own both will have a fun time comparing the 2017 with its 2016 counterpart: the two are very close in quality, but the 2017 is somewhat more suave and demonstrative.

The 2017 Pouilly-Fuissé Premier Jus des Croux is a minuscule production of three barrels. It has more airiness on the nose compared to the Jus de Hauts de Vignes, scents of petrichor and pressed white flowers gradually unfurling with aeration. The saline palate is extremely well balanced with a fine bead of acidity and a surfeit of tension, leading to a riveting, mineral-driven, poised finish that lingers in the mouth. Try and grab one of the 900 bottles.
