Domaine Christian Salmon Pouilly Fume Clos des Criots 2022 cave-de-beblenheim between the Côtes de BlayeFum means smoky in French which is a key indication of the style. Intense and complex floral aromas melt into smoky, mineral flavours coupled with a refreshing citrus and grapefruit edge. It has a great rounded mouth feel and an uplifting dry finish. A great food partner, this wine will hold its own even alongside rich pork dishes and smoked meats.
