Château Pierre-Bise
Clos de la Soucherie Coteaux du Layon-Beaulieu Chenin Blanc
Coteaux du Layon, Anjou-Saumur, Loire Valley, France
A mildly amber colour that makes me think of shrivelled grapes covered in mold. Too ethereal (light) to be a sweet wine, therefore I'd have it as an aperitif too. Apricots and honey and orange marmalade and walnuts and marzipan, tangy aftertaste. Not a cultural milestone like a Sauternes or a Tokaji but excellent in its own league. #cheninlikeadiamond #cheninblanc #loire #botrytis #sweetwine #noblerot #anjou #saumur #beaulieu
