Tesco Finest Pouilly Fumé – £14

Pouilly Fumé is made from Sauvignon Blanc grapes that acquire a powdery, smoky or “fumé’ blue coat at the peak of maturation. This classic white has flavours of fresh gooseberry and lime with a balanced creamy and mineral finish. Matches seafood or chicken dishes.

Peter Morrell, Editor comments “This wine is made by the well-respected Fournier wine producer. It’s an Appellation Pouilly Fume Controlee wine, which guarantees its quality. The bouquet has a wealth of citrus and grapefruit notes together with that hallmark smokiness of a Pouilly Fumé. As it moves to the palate the mouthfeel is light to medium. The citrus becomes a more defined lime flavour, and the the grapefruit is joined by the fresh taste of gooseberries, and hints of honey. The acidity is crisp and bright, and there is a good dose of flinty minerality. The finish is fruity with floral touches.

Pair this with white meat, seafood, and south east Asian dishes.”
