What Does A Green Wristband Do For You

Clos Naudin Vouvray moelleux 1999, Philippe Foreau

As I said, the new frontier is the Loire. New for someone like me, are not very familiar with wines of this kind.

Mind you, I was not totally devoid of knowledge about this region ethyl (I say wonderful) but the French certainly have not tried it so many producers as I did, for example, to Burgundy.

This bottle is simply spectacular. The color first: a dark yellow, intense yet brilliant. The nose is magic in there is all the Loire. Plaster combined with honey then leave room for a wonderful aroma of pears.

taste is even better: dramatic acidity, balanced, harmonious, combined with a sweetness that never fails. Final Marathon apricot.

We are clearly in front of a bottle portentous that deserves a great food to accompany. I tried it with a sort of pate typical of the Loire, really exceptional, but for which at this moment I do not remember the name (someone can help me in this regard?).

A wine that just needs something else to be perfect.
