The 2017 Pouilly-Fuissé Vieilles Vignes En Buland offers crushed gravel, dried flower and honeysuckle on the nose, which is backward at first but soon finds its voice and gains intensity. The palate is well balanced, with weight and amplitude, and quite spicy relative to the Les Crays, offering white pepper and just a hint of curry leaf. The finish feels focused, although I discern a little more complexity on the Les Crays at the moment. Still, this is certainly worth checking out.
