2016 Marc Bredif Classic Vouvray

The domaine of Marc Bredif is one of the most famous names in the Loire, renowned for the longevity and quality of their Vouvray. Established in 1893 under the name of Chateau les Roches it wasn't until 1919 when Marc Bredif took over from his uncle, that the name was changed to reflect the change in ownership.

Brilliant very pale straw colour with a faint tinge of green around the outskirts and a watery hue. Aromas of Jonathan apple, baked pears and honeysuckle emerge from the glass followed by a hint of musk and some spice. Delicious ripe Jonathan apple flavours fill the palate intermixing with pear and honeysuckle. Also present are subtle quince elements and a sprinkling of spice. Nicely rounded mouthfeel finishing dry with good fresh acidity. Good depth with a medium to long conclusion of Jonathan apple, pear, honeysuckle, quince and spice.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
