1981 Coteaux du Layon, Moulin Touchais
The vineyards of Coteaux du Layon are situated along the banks of the River Layon in France's Loire valley. Here, some of the finest sweet wines are produced, and exclusively from chenin blanc. Here, too, Moulin Touchais traces its roots back to 1787, sharing a long, illustrious history that accounts for the estate's breath-taking collection of historic vintages.
"Mid-depth. Distinct green-yellow appearance through the core of the wine. Lovely nose. Very pure. Clean, with notes of toffee apple. Gentle and understated, with real freshness on entry. Great sweetness/acid balance. This is certainly a wine defined by its acidity. There is a gentle complexity developing behind with hints of toffee and hazelnuts. Persistent finish. Absolutely no rush to drink. "
Richard Kelley, MW
