Domaine de la Soucherie - Coteau du Layon 2009
Rating: Figaro Magazine 4**** Top Pick
Le Coteau du Layon benefits from ideal conditions for the growth of Botrytis, the fungus responsible for the noble rot that produces great sweet wines. This cuvée makes a powerful impression with aromas that blend the freshness of exotic fruits and the zesty vibrancy of citrus. A must-try!
