One bottle of this quality Vouvray from arguably the leading domaine in Vouvray. This wine is not now available in the UK and so is a rarity. 1989 was an exceptional year for the domaine.
A tasting note on Cellartracker reads:
"Starts off with a somewhat typical older Chenin funkiness of mushrooms with wet wool. This really should've been decanted hours beforehand. With some air the funkiness blew off and the wine took on orange citrus and stone fruit aromas with earthy mineral. Usually the mineral note manifests itself more chalky, or white gravelly, but this had a darker note to it. Like flavors at first and initially the wine had somewhat of an oily texture and was maybe a little loose upfront. As usual, with extended airing there was a dramatic transformation. The wine seemed to get younger before our eyes as the fruit turned a more youthful yellow and the mineral also became purer. The wine filled in and grew in length and shows brilliant structure and length. Just glorious stuff. One of my favorite Demi-Secs. Solid A."
