Like taking a stroll through an Orchard in October, with windfall apples on the ground. This is just begging for roast pork and crackling!

Dark straw in color. Nectar and honey on the nose. A delicious semi-sweet wine with apricot, honey, cinnamon, pear, and candied peach on the palate. High acid, medium body, and a long finish. Eleven years on and drinking beautifully.

Deep golden in color. Honey, lavender, lemonade, cooked apple, quince, and minerals. High acid, semi-dry with chewy residual sugar, medium body, medium alcohol, and long finish. Beautiful match for shell fish.

We loved this wine when we visited the vineyard in August 2016 and took it home with us from France! Crisp and flavorful - the perfect Vouvray in my opinion. Drinking it was a great way to celebrate my birthday. 😀
