Semi-dry in style, the 2019 White Montlouis-sur-Loire Les Tuffeaux appears in an invigoratingly fresh tapered style. With an absolutely perfect sugar-acidity balance, energy and great fullness on the palate, this sapid and compelling wine is best enjoyed quietly over the next fifteen years. Ideal with spicy food. Rated 92/100 by the RVF. |
