Tasting note

Coteaux du Layon Chenin Blanc should unfold with quince, apricot and honey, lifted by lemon and floral notes. The 1995 Cuvée Eleonore is expected to feel rich and silky, with Chenin's bright acidity balancing sweetness and giving the palate a finely shaped texture. Its peak is listed through 2034 within a horizon to 2045; a long finish should carry orchard fruit into gentle spice and a mineral impression.
