Decanter 94 Points - " If it wasn't for idiotic local politics and jealousy, Bretonnire would be appellation Vouvray and among the best examples of that appellation. From the 2014 vintage all Vouvray has to be made within the appellation, with the neighbouring commune to the east the sole exception. The Taille aux Loups' winery is in Montlouis, so this wine is Vin de France. Bretonnire is a monopole and comes from a clos on the premires ctes in the commune of Noizay. It has a ripe buttery aromas with a lovely rich texture. There is a touch of oak but very well integrated with a long powerful finish, though still a little tight on the finish. Fine aging potential."
