2006 Les Griottes, Pouilly-Fumé, Jean-Pierre Bailly Sadly this 2006 from Jean-Pierre Bailly (Tracy-sur-Loire) is a textbook Pouilly-Fumé disappointment. It is not that the wine is badly made rather just bland and lacking in character and concentration. Suspect this would be better if the yields were reduced. Jean-Pierre Bailly has 15 hectares in Tracy-sur-Loire.
September 2008 Thierry Delaunay with 2008 Sauvignon Blanc juice
The sample was from Majestic Wine, who now list the Les Griottes' 2008 from Jean-Pierre Bailly for £11.99 (buy 2 bottles save £4 – £9.99 each). The 2008 may be better. However Majestic also list 2007/2008 Sauvignon de Touraine from Thierry Delaunay £6.99 (buy 2 bottles save £2 – £5.99 each). Although I haven't tasted the 2008 from Thierry Delaunay since the Salon des Vins de Loire in early
