Domaine du Clos Naudin - Vouvray - Moelleux - Blanc - 2018

Wine:

Roundness, balance and deliciousness: the 2018 Sweet white Vouvray is a little marvel of balance between sugar and freshness. Already very pleasant, it is a great wine that will reveal its full potential in a few years. Perfect with a marbled pastry, a sweet and salty dish or a poultry with a delicately spiced cream.

Vinification:

Hand-harvested, traditionally grown, aged for about 7 months in 300L old oak barrels.
Residual sugar : 78g/l.

Color:

Golden, amber reflections.

Nose:

Notes of very ripe banana, pear, a touch of blond caramel and vanilla.

Palate:

Delightful and delicious, this wine offers a nice balance between sugar and freshness.

Temperature:

Serve between 10 and 12°C.

Food and wine pairing:

Aperitif for real gourmands, simple toasts of foie gras, at the table with a fine apple pie, a baked apple avoiding spices, excess sugar and not neglecting butter, with certain cheeses such as Bleu de Bresse, Fourme d'Ambert on toast.

Cellar aging:

From now until 2041
