A real bargain!

2009 Pouilly-Fuissé, Domaine Georges Burrier
A cool, penetrating, fresh and crispy nose with notes of lemon and grapefruit peel, almond paste, yellow apples, gravel, and elder berries. A high, pure and intense nose. Really fine. This has grace and purity.
The taste is fresh, young and full of finesse, with notes of yellow apples, peach, lime and sweet, sweet minerals. A long, pure, lovely finish. This is a great drinking Chardonnay, with some nice complexity. I kept it open in the fridge for three days, and it held its own.
For 19 Euro, this is a steal. Drinks like a 40 Euro Chassagne-Montrachet from a good producer. I´m loading up...
