Robert Parker’s tasting notes on the Pouilly-Fuissé La Roche 2019 are: “The 2019 Pouilly-Fuissé La Roche unwinds in the glass with notes of crisp Anjou pear, toasted almonds, white flowers, orange zest and vanilla pod. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and textural, with a lively spine of acidity and a long, mineral finish, it's my favorite wine in the cellar this year.”.
