Domaine Philippe Raimbault, Les Lumeaux 2022 – Pouilly-Fumé

The wine has a pale lemon yellow color. On the nose, it is reserved and requires aeration. It then expresses the aromas of passion fruit, gooseberries, candied lemon, grapefruit, green apple, green plum, as well as a touch of limestone, chalk and iodine, associated with a floral perfume of acacia and chamomile. The palate is juicy, gourmand and fruity. On the attack, it expresses the flavors of fleshy stone fruits (yellow peach, apricot, a hint of mirabelle plum in the background), which are complemented by notes of candied lemon peel, grapefruit, passion fruit and gooseberries. We also find a precise and enveloped minerality (limestone, chalk, iodine), as well as a floral hint of acacia and chamomile. The finish is tangy, salivating, slightly bitter (lime peel). Good persistence in the mouth, with chiseled notes of fresh citrus peel and a vegetal touch of green beans, which brings freshness.
