Joseph Mellot – Domaine des Mariniers 2017 – Pouilly-Fumé

The nose is fruity and offers freshness as well as a fine richness. It reveals notes of ripe lemon, ripe grapefruit and small notes of peach associated with fine touches of zests as well as discreet hints of racy minerality and a discreet hint of seed. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, well-built and offers a good definition, juiciness, an acidulous frame, precision, a fine grain as well as a good freshness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of ripe lemon, fleshy nectarine and small notes of grapefruit associated with fine touches of zests, racy minerality as well as very discreet hints of flowers (in the background) and a very discreet hint of pepper (in the background).
