Montlouis-sur-Loire Cuvee des Loups 2020 Domaine de la Taille aux Loups

Tasting Notes
When poured into a glass, the golden liquid sparkles and its high viscosity causes it to slowly trickle down the inside of the glass.
The aroma is very rich, with the first impression of ripe tropical fruits such as apricot, dried mango and pineapple compote, followed by acacia honey and quince.
Layers of orange peel and spices such as saffron and ginger emerge.
When you put it in your mouth, it has an amazingly smooth texture, and the concentrated fruitiness and luscious sweetness spread throughout your mouth.
Although there is a high residual sugar content, the fine acidity tightly holds the whole together without making it feel heavy.
From the middle to the end, you can sense the minerality along with the flint nuances from the silex, adding complexity and tension to the sweetness.
The finish is very long, with quiet flavors of apricot, honey, a hint of salt and spice.
