2006 Saumaize-Michelin,
Mâcon-Villages, “Les Sertaux”
12/750ml
Gently
oaky nose with bittersweet fruit. Really ripe and fat, with
tropical flavors cut by firm, fresh acidity.
Fermented and
raised in 100% wood.
"Light
yellow. Fresh pear and tangerine on the nose, with a bright
mineral underpinning. Firm orchard fruit flavors are given a
bitter twist by citrus peel and anise. This easy-drinking wine
fleshes out on the close."

2005 Saumaize-Michelin, Ampelopsis
12/750ml
"Light
gold. Vibrant quince and pear aromas, with smoky minerals and
anise arriving with air. Bitter orange and orchard fruit flavors
are nicely concentrated but not heavy, with salty minerality
adding vivacity. Becomes richer and more buttery on the finish
while maintaining noteworthy precision. This wouldn't let up. I
also tasted the four components that will comprise the 2006
Ampelopsis and the new vintage looks to be similar in quality,
but more pliant."

This
is named after a 5-sided marine shell fossil often found in
Pouilly-Fuissé.
"Bright,
fresh and airy high-toned and ripe citrus and orchard fruit
aromas combine with round, sweet and nicely balanced flavors
that are certainly delicious and attractive but can't match the
super power, complexity and precision of the best in the range.
To be sure this is a fine effort and worth a look."

Pouilly-Fuissé, “Ronchevats”
12/750ml
"Light
yellow. Rich orange and pear aromas are complemented by exotic
baking spices and smoked meat; smells like a Meursault. Fleshy
orchard fruit flavors give way to spicier citrus on the
strikingly nervy, long finish."

White peach, pear aromas; brioche nuances. Mineral, rich and
full flavored and complex wine.
"Green-gold.
Spicy citrus and pear scents are complicated by anise and dusty
minerals. Crisp and energetic, with light-bodied orange and
Anjou pear flavors, gentle minerality and a broad, long finish.
Gained weight with air while maintaining energy. Offers
impressive balance."

2005 Saumaize-Michelin,
Pouilly-Fuissé, “Vignes Blanches”
12/750ml
A youthful yet still compellingly complex wine that tastes
of fruit (green apples and bosc pears), with subtle suggestions
of slate and stone. The wine undoubtedly will improve with
more time in bottle, but is so tasty now that cellaring it
requires an unhealthy level of self-denial. Unless, that
is, you buy it by the case. - Paul Lukacs, Wine Review (Apr
3, 2007) - 90 pts

2006 Saumaize-Michelin,
Pouilly-Fuissé, “Clos sur la Roche” 12/750ml
Complex aromas of soft citrus fruits
and minerals. Densely packed and fresh, with intense, complex flavors
of white fruit as well as a hint of spice. The finish is very
firm, long but not dry.
"Light
yellow. Sexy bouquet offers lemon, melon, white flowers and
toasted grain. Fleshy orchard fruit flavors are firmed by tangy
citrus zest and dusty minerals. Offers impressive clarity and
the finishing breadth, cut and persistence of an excellent
Puligny-Montrachet."

2006 Saumaize-Michelin,
St Véran, “Les Crèches” 12/750ml
From vines situated
in Davayé
and planted in
in limestone
based soils.
Elegant and fruity nose, minerality. Round, rich, fresh
and well balanced.
"Green-gold.
Leesy apple, pear and orange aromas are complicated by baking
spices and lemon zest. Racy, sharply focused green apple and
citrus flavors maintain good energy through a long, tangy
finish. Became fleshier and sweeter with air. Saumaize notes
that this wine's energy is due to the calcaire soil."

"Pale
yellow. Smoky peach and nectarine aromas offer a seductive,
leesy character, with good mineral lift. Fleshy pit fruit
flavors are creamy and pliant, finishing with an echo of toasty
lees. These vines reportedly range from 40 to 70 years of age."
