Mâconnais on Snooth
Good, crisp Pouilly-Fuisse, but in the context of the vintage and appellation and producer, something of a disappointment. I actually strongly preferred the "lesser" Macon-Vergisson from Eric Forest to this wine, which is...
Guffens-Heynen is the "home" estate of Jean-Marie Guffens, owner of the Verget operation that makes so many excellent and fairly-priced wines. The 2005 Macon-Pierreclos is a satisfying, round, harmonious Chardonnay...
Remarkably plump Chardonnay from an area (and winemaker) I associate more with lighter, crisper wines. Maybe it's the age (tasted in October 2009), but this wine came across as very soft, ripe, and open in this tasting....
Verget Pouilly-Fuisse Terroirs de Vergisson Clos du Martelet 2004
Starting at $24.99 Snoothrank: 3/5Bright aromas with a fungal funkiness and some baked pears mashed in. Medium thick mouthfeel, with medium acidity, light fruit and more than a touch of oak. The finish kind of drops off, lingering mostly with the oak flavors.

Apples and cream permeate this wine. Though there is a little bit of heat on the finish, it's definitely not abrasive and mixes well with the butter and acidity. Very smooth, thick mouthfeel making this wine a meal in and...

Chalk and mineral on the nose with a touch of estery banana peel and a bit of leesiness. The fruit here is bright and clean and firmly in the spicy apple and lime and of the register. In the mouth this is focused and...
Soft nutty oak and spice notes meld with the ripe orchard fruits on the nose. Big apple and Asian pear fruit notes with a wild flower top note. This is surprisingly soft and expansive in the mouth with a lush feel and...
