During a Loire wine dinner. Dark yellow with bernstein hue. Nose of botrytis, honey and quince. Full bodied palate, sweet with good freshness and acidity. Very good quality, reminded me of Sauternes in aroma and style.

2005 St Emilion, Alsace and Stickies (M.E. home, Umeå, Sweden): Good, highly alive acids to match the sweetness. Gives a fresh feeling in the mouth. Easy to drink, even given it's a dessert wine. Fecking delicious! ...even if this is a rather simple sweet wine. Has some potential for keepers, but I doubt it will ever be a master piece, unless it lives as long as Moulin-Touchais.
Would happily have again!

Salon de la Revue du Vin de France 2011 (Palais Brongniart, Paris, France): Une vinification très subtile, étonnante même quand on sait qu'il y a 180g de sucre résiduel dans ce vin car il évite le piège de la liqueur du Layon, en gardant une finesse et une précision digne d'un grand demi-sec de Touraine. A retenir absolument pour varier les plaisirs en liquoreux !
