2006 Dagueneau Pouilly Fume Silex

I shared a bottle of 2006 Silex yesterday at lunch with a friend. We had a tasty grilled seafood salad and the wine was a good match. Very tight nose at first (the bottle was a bit too cold) but it opened up in a few minutes to show a fair amount of orange marmalade and lemon zest with a pronounced salty minerality. Fairly lean at first on the palate with a fair amount of zingy acidity but it quickly fattened up a bit and there was a fair amount of lemon and grapefruit flavors with a slightly floral background and a lot of stones on the finish. Nice "B+/A-"

thanks for notes. Will be interesting to see what happens with the Dagueneau winws after Didier's death.
