New vintage, 2008 rated: Bettane & Desseauve 15/20
This lovely Côteaux du Layon Chaume expresses itself strongly with exotic notes and figs. A note of freshness is perceptible (rosemary, Provencal herbs). On the palate, we find the same aromatic palette as on the nose, with density and length.

Note and review by M. BERNARD G. Published on 05/12/2012

This wine is splendid. It has the same effect on the palate as a great Sauternes. Profusion of aromas and flavors. If I could, I'd give it at least 95/100.
