Clos Naudin (Foreau), Vouvray Moelleux Reserve other_regions opulent and ultra-intense broad-based flavors

opulent and ultra-intense broad-based flavors also remain extremely backward and tight yet the palate staining finish is hugely persistent

While this should be capable of rewarding up to a decade of keeping

So inky and unfathomably profound in shade

This all-Grenache cuvée offers fudge-like density and rich tannins but also cooked

serious and complex finale that is also clearly built-to-age

Expansive aromas of caramelized apricot, white peach, date, banana and butter cream are layered in the noble botrytis. Rich, spicy tropical fruits coat the palate, but a finely chiseled, chalky minerality keep this chenin blanc remarkably light on its feet. Dense but not at all heavy, it finishes long and not at all cloying. Delicious. Joel B. Payne
