🏰Only 550 bottles produced, this highly exclusive 2016 Guffens-Heynen Pouilly-Fuissé Premiers Jus de Croux is Jean-Marie Guffens' 【cutting reply to the new Premier Cru classification】, blending the finest press fractions from the esteemed Croux and Petits Croux lieux-dits. Guffens truly excelled in the challenging 2016 vintage, which saw frost damage across Burgundy, delivering a wine that is "a bit Corton in style, but obviously better". This white Burgundy unfurls with inviting aromas of white flowers, toasted nuts, orange oil, pear, freshly baked bread, and iodine. The palate is full-bodied, deep, layered, concentrated, racy, and resonant, concluding with a long, chalky finish. Expect notes of ripe peach, pineapple, lemon curd, a hint of matchstick reduction, and sweet spice, evolving into honey, sultana, vanilla, toast, and clove. Decanter also noted buttered orchard fruit, melon, and citrus. This wine is built for the long haul, with a recommended drinking window extending from 2028 to 2048. 🍴 For a sublime pairing, consider roasted chicken or turkey, allowing the wine's complex layers to complement the poultry beautifully. It would also be exceptional with rich seafood dishes like pan-seared scallops or lobster thermidor, or even a creamy mushroom risotto. 🥂 This rare and profound Pouilly-Fuissé is perfectly suited for a 【milestone celebration or a serious tasting session】 with fellow connoisseurs. Its incredible aging potential also makes it an ideal candidate for a significant addition to a discerning cellar.
