Didier Dagueneau Pur Sang 2005 is a Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire; K& L cites the cuvée as sourced primarily from La Folie near Saint-Andelain, with clay and chalky limestone soils and barrel ageing.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Fresh herb, lemon peel, grapefruit, macadamia nut and floral notes, with lime, honeydew melon and lily-of-the-valley also cited by K& L review excerpts.
- Palate: Dense, chalky and generous, with salt-tinged lime, ripe melon and subtle mineral complexity.
- Finish: Long, very stony and mouthwatering, with herb, fleur de sel and mineral persistence.
Best For
