Pinon Vouvray Moelleux 1er Trie 750 ml - Pre-arrival (Arrives Mid-September)
Vintage: | 2003 |
---|---|
Description: | The greatest producers of Vouvray such as Pinon, Huet and Foreau, made beautiful moelleux wines in 2003 despite the heat, with adequate, if not high acidities. We have tasted many Pinon 2003s which have been superb - here is Chris Kissack, certainly a great fan of the Pinons, with a lovely review: "The distinguishing feature between this cuvée and the Cuvée Botrytis is just that – botrytis. The Première Trie is made with 100% passerillé fruit, and in this vintage has a residual sugar of 103 g/l, with acidity approximately 4.0 g/l (about as low as this cuvée will go) and alcohol 11.5%. A dense and concentrated character on the nose, sweetly dried and golden, roasted fruits. This character is mirrored by the intense and grippy sweet substance on the palate. There is some good support from the acidity though. |
