Lucky enough to have been invited to pillage the cellar of an old friend and came out of it with a 1975 and 1986 ch Rayne-Vingneau Sauternes. Both wonderful but the 86 was stunning, everything a late harvest wine can and should be. Fresh herbal aromas of tarragon, camphor, menthol and almond oil. Honeyed dried apricots in mid palate with do much more . Clean mineral and mediciinal finish. Very lush and lithe. Truly a standard bearer. — 5 years ago

Monday night and I wanted to try a Méthode Traditionnelle Vouvray Brut. At 12% Alc. by Vol. I have opened the Domaine Vigneau-Chevreau Vouvray Brut 100% Chenin Blanc.
The nose reveals good perfumed fruit of yellow apple, peach, pear, honeydew melon and honey.
On the palate is loads of citrus, lime, yellow apple, pear, peach, herbal honey, ginger and wet river rocks.
This wine is light to medium body with high acidity that leads to a fresh clean long crisp finish. The week starts right with a Loire Sparkler. Be safe and have a great week. Nostrovia! 🍾🍾🍾🍾 — 7 years ago
