Domaine Vigneau-Chevreau 2015 Vouvray Abbaye de Marmoutier Clos du Rougemont
93 POINTS
Cellar Selection
The abbey of Marmoutier was founded in the 4th century by Saint Martin. The walled vineyard is owned by the city of Tours, across the Loire from Vouvray. The wine is off dry, ripe with pear and honey and deliciously balanced with the acidity. It is young and will repay aging, so drink from 2020.-Roger Voss, "Wine Enthusiast", 10/1/2017

91 POINTS
Produced from organic grapes, the wine is beautiful and honey touched. Its acidity keeps crispness while the fruit shines with lemon and creamed-apple flavors. Drink from 2018.-Roger Voss, "Wine Enthusiast", 10/1/2017
