By Chance we ended up with two same bottles, but different vintage out of three bottles of our mini Pouilly Fumé tasting. It was interesting to compare it to 2009 vintage. This one was much more fruitier on one side, but to us slightly less mineral and complex, we agreed that 2009 vintage was better and as such it proved that certain bottles of Pouilly Fumé taste better when at least 3 years old.
