Wednesday, June 27, 2018 - Moulin Touchais: A retrospective tasing conducted by Frederik Wilbrenninck and Richard Kelley MW; 6/26/2018-6/27/2018 (The Institute of Masters of Wine, London SW11): Richard Kelley MW: 'A dreadful vintage. They had 6 weeks of rain up to harvest. This was probably picked in November.'

Over riding scent of pine forest, it's almost like retsina! It’s a simple wine but the acidity is fresh and this retains the house style. Not terrible but not the best in the cellar. But pretty good old wine in the context of the vintage. It held it's head up today and did the best it could.
