Nineteen nighty six wasn`t a legendary vintage unlike the season that would follow. The 1996 Moulin Touchais Coteaux du Layon, a product of a fairly warm season, it is not overtly warm in its fruit profile with some lightly botrytised spice character, plus a rose-like scent, apricots and almonds. With just 76g/L of residual sugar it`s not the sweetest interpretation, but its joy is its super smooth, refined texture. Medium length. 90 points
