La Soufrandière (Bret Bros.) Pouilly-Fuisse ‘En Chatenay’ Cuvée ZEN ‘23

This Pouilly-Fuissé from the En Chatenay vineyard boasts a brilliant yellow gold hue. The nose is rich and inviting, unfolding with classic aromas of yellow apple, ripe peach, toasted hazelnut, and a touch of buttered briache. On the palate, it is broad and creamy, showcasing a luxurious, rounded texture that is perfectly balanced by a firm line of citrus-driven acidity. Layers of stone fruit, lemon curd, and a pronounced stony minerality unfold with grace and power. This Premier Cru-level wine is barrel-fermented and aged on its lees in French oak, building a wine of notable richness and complexity. Earning 94 points for its depth and class, it is a magnificent pairing for lobster, grilled sea bass, or poultry in a cream sauce.
