Domaine Leflaive Pouilly Fuissé La Chaneau – 2019 – Decanter – 93 Points
Highlights the lemon peel and pomelo fruit of great purity with delightful salty, mineral notes. The wine is crisp and fine on the palate.

Domaine Leflaive Pouilly Fuissé La Chaneau – 2019 – Bughound – 93 Points
Mild reduction blurs the nuance of what appears to be ripe white orchard aromas. There is both excellent volume and salinity to the attractively textured medium-bodied flavors that terminate in a bracingly dry, complex and well-balanced finale.
