The 2021 Pouilly-Vinzelles Climat Les Longeays, a parcel that belonged to the Brets' paternal grandfather, located on more clayey soils than other cuvées, aged one year in barrel then six months in tank. This has an expressive and animated nose with lime, green apple, crushed stone and subtle orange rind aromas. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity, taut and linear, and animated with a saline finish. It's a little terse at first but more engaging as it unfurls in the glass. Good potential.

Ripe and very fresh aromas include those of lemongrass, green apple, spiced pear and a hint of mineral reduction. There exceptionally rich, even opulent, flavors possess excellent intensity that carries over to the nicely complex, balanced and sneaky long finish that is also supported by bitter lemon-tinged acidity.
