"Its exuberance is delivered in flavors of pear in syrup and candied apricot." (RVF spécial Millésime 2015 - June 2016) The sugars, perfectly integrated, bring greediness to this very well-balanced cuvée.

Domaine rated (2018 guide) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)

About the domain :

Eddy Oosterlinck-Bracke, with his slender moustache and tenor voice, indulges his passion for great sweet wines with his wife Mileine. A Belgian hardware merchant in his youth, he felt it his duty, he says, to make wine... The call of the vineyard came in 2001, with 8 hectares (out of a potential 22 hectares) in Coteaux-du-Layon-Faye and Anjou, all cultivated under certified biodynamic methods since 2007. Rich and complex, the liquoreux wines are a benchmark for the appellation, with rich barrel ageing that gives the wines their body and enables them to stand the test of time. A great place to stop and add to your cellar!

Note and review by M. EDOUARD B. Published on 08/05/2022

A very pretty wine! Beautiful golden to orange color... Fruity nose, quince, pear... Honey... A nice finesse on the palate without too much sweetness! ????
