Domaine Alain Cailbourdin Description

Embark on a mesmerizing journey with Domaine Alain Cailbourdin's Pouilly-Fumé Les Cris, a pristine Sauvignon Blanc that dances gracefully with the allure of nature. Born from the finest limestone slopes with southwestern exposure, this enchanting wine is a testament to Alain's devotion to preserving the essence of terroir and crafting wines with authenticity and integrity.

Emanating from its caillotes-clad cradle, Les Cris serenades your senses with a captivating symphony of aromas, featuring refreshing lime zest, succulent white peach, fragrant lemongrass, and tantalizing quince. The whispers of broom and grapefruit harmonize with the distinctive gunflint notes, paying homage to the wine's siliceous soil origins.

The lively palate of this enthralling Sauvignon Blanc teases with invigorating flavors of grated ginger, delicate jasmine tea, zesty pink grapefruit, and the ever-present wet stone minerality. Its crisp, lingering finish leaves you yearning for more, showcasing the exceptional aging potential of this mesmerizing creation.

Domaine Alain Cailbourdin's Pouilly-Fumé Les Cris is a sublime companion to a myriad of culinary delights. Revel in the symphony of flavors when paired with zesty citrus-marinated seafood, grilled asparagus drizzled with lemon-infused olive oil, or a vibrant goat cheese and arugula salad adorned with candied nuts. The wine's mineral backbone and refreshing acidity are a harmonious match for rich, creamy dishes, making it an ideal partner for an exquisite truffle risotto or a sumptuous lobster thermidor.

Vinous Media: 92 Points

The 2019 Pouilly-Fumé Les Cris is all about its structure. Don't expect the usual aromatic descriptors; it’s textured, firm and powerful and requires more time in bottle, with its phenolics and acidity combining to grip the palate. There are aromas of flint and white talc from wild fermentation and a note of apple.

Staff Rated: 90 Points

Extraordinarily elegant, when young this wine possesses aromas of fruits (pineapple, citrus, peach) and mineral tones. After 1 or 2 years the aromas refine and become more and more marked by the minerality of the terroir. On the palate, Les Cris is powerful, well-structured and very rich. Excellent balance is achieved.
