Tasting note
Coteaux du Layon Chenin Blanc should suggest quince, apricot and honey, lifted by lemon and a delicate floral aroma. The 1991 bottling may feel sumptuous yet composed, Chenin's bright acidity giving shape to its sweetness and a fine, textured feel across the palate. Best maturity is projected through 2030, with the broader horizon reaching 2041; a long finish should carry orchard fruit into a gentle mineral and savory note.
