Robert Parker
" Always a favorite in the range, it's both warm and fruity and soft and structured - tart and juicy with lemon citrus and white fruit, as well as a hint of herbaceous pepper, and deeply mineral. Wonderful harmony and balance, and long aging potential. This is a serious wine, which just begs to be accompanied by shellfish or smoked fish." (Decanter)

Rated wine (guide 2022) 93/100
About the wine:
Always a favorite in the range, it's both warm and fruity and soft and structured - tart and juicy with lemon citrus and white fruit, as well as a hint of herbaceous pepper, and also deeply mineral. Wonderful harmony and balance, and long aging potential. This is a serious wine, which just begs to be accompanied by shellfish or smoked fish.
Robert Parker - Wine Advocate
Rated (guide 2022) 92/100 (Outstanding wine)
About the wine:
From Les Loges, Pouilly-Fumé Caillottes 2020 opens beautifully pure and subtly intense, with a mineral, even flinty nose that also reveals fine, ripe, refreshing white fruit with a hint of redcurrant and leafy notes. Elegant, refined and sappy on the palate, this is a dense, enduringly mineral and structured Pouilly with a long, intense and powerful finish [...] The fine tannins and richness of this elegant 2020 Pouilly indicate good ageing potential.
