Bonnezeaux 1986 excellent balance! This tiny AC in Coteaux du Layon is a real gem. Keep it in your cellar for at least 10, but better 20 or 30 years and experience the magic of chenin blanc. — 10 years ago

Nice sparkling representation of the Clairette varietal, hailing from the Rhone valley. Crisp with nice acidity, this is the perfect aperitif to start off an evening of indulgences. — 11 years ago
