Philippe Foreau Description
Discover the sublime Philippe Foreau Vouvray Demi Sec Domaine Du Clos Naudin, a testament to the art of winemaking. This exceptional Vouvray, despite the challenging vintage, exudes a rich tapestry of flavors and aromas. Its seductive nose blends honeyed apple and salted pear with hints of acacia and honeysuckle. The palate is a marvel of silky texture and sinewy elegance, offering a luxurious combination of grilled apple, pear, and a buttery richness. This wine, with its vibrant acidity and honeyed texture, presents a delightful dryness that belies its slight residual sugar. Aged in ancient barriques and naturally fermented, Philippe Foreau's Vouvray is a masterclass in consistency and quality, connecting the present with the illustrious past of the vineyard.
The Philippe Foreau Vouvray Demi Sec boasts a harmonious blend of fruit, floral, and earthy notes. Its nose tantalizes with honeyed apple, salted pear, and delicate floral whispers. On the palate, it unfolds in layers of grilled fruit and buttery richness, underscored by a vibrant, reductive energy. This wine is a silky, energetic journey, culminating in a persistently delightful finish.
This Vouvray pairs exquisitely with rich, creamy dishes. Think baked brie with honey, seared scallops, or a light chicken curry. Its honeyed texture and vibrant acidity beautifully complement soft cheeses and seafood, making it an ideal choice for an elegant dinner or a sophisticated gathering.
Decanter: 90 Points
Its layered bouquet of white flowers, peach, pear, and some spicy touches impresses by its brightness and its dynamism. The mouthfeel is both structured and fleshy with a touch of residual sugar, but the overall balance is impeccable, and most enticing of all is the saline lick on the finish
