WINE DESCRIPTION
Philippe Foreau Reserve Vouvray Moelleux is a highly sought-after wine produced by the renowned winemaker Philippe Foreau. This wine comes from the Vouvray appellation, which is known for producing some of the best Chenin Blanc wines in the world. The vineyards where the grapes are grown are situated on the slopes of the Loire Valley, which provides ideal growing conditions for the grapes. The winemaking process involves carefully selecting the best grapes and fermenting them in oak barrels to create a rich and complex flavor profile. The resulting wine is a sweet and luscious Moelleux style, with notes of honey, apricot, and citrus. This wine is a perfect choice for those who appreciate the complexity and depth of a well-crafted sweet wine.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Philippe Foreau Reserve Vouvray Moelleux is an opulent and aromatic white wine.It offers up a complex nose of ripe stone and tropical fruits, honeycomb, and candied orange peel. The palate is rich and textured with a creamy texture, yet balanced by a streak of mineral acidity. On the finish, hints of apricot, lemon, and honey linger. This is a delightful wine that expresses the unique terroir of the Vouvray region.
