91 Vinous
- (from fruit harvested late in 2016; 27% new oak): Green-tinged yellow. Musky lemon-lime and crushed stone on the sexy, complex nose. Plush, thick and fine-grained, delivering terrific energy and inner-mouth perfume. Strong flinty minerality carries through the salty, tactile, palate-staining finish. Desplans included a bit more of the press wine in 2016 but this wine has the dusty salinity to support it. The yield here was 45 hectoliters per hectare with a bit of hail. Clearly a wine from an outstanding terroir, although Desplans noted that it was much harder to make a good 2016 than 2015 here, adding that the 2015 was a favorite for its freshness. He also expressed the opinion that the Pouilly-Fuissé Les Combes Vieilles Vignes was better than La Roche in 2014 and 2017, but not in '15 or '16.
