Anjou Blanc 2022 Mary Taylor, Loir France
Description
Sourced from vineyards that fall exactly along the border of the two sub-regions of Anjou, this gorgeously subtle white from fourth-generation winemaker Pascal Biotteau comes from the village of Saint-Jean-de-Mauvrets, situated on the old Roman road from Angers to Poitiers.
92 Points – John Gilman, View From The Cellar (full review below)
“The 2020 Anjou Blanc from Pascal Biotteau is a lovely young example of chenin blanc. The bouquet is bright and nicely high-toned in personality out of the blocks, wafting from the glass in a mix of apple, sweet quince, chalky soil tones, a touch of bee pollen and a topnote of white lilies. On the palate the wine is bright, full-bodied, focused and rock solid at the core, with excellent transparency and cut, zesty acids and a long, complex and beautifully balanced finish. This is excellent Anjou Blanc! 2021-2035. 92” – John Gilman, View From The Cellar, May-June 2021 #93

“The Mary Taylor négoce project in the Loire Valley partners with vigneron Pascal Boitteau in Saint-Jean-des-Mauvrets. In chenin blanc there is this honeyed and yellow apple fruit forwardness that takes over the aromatic front. This is followed by fleshiness and succulence like biting into ripe and tart stone fruit, a peach per se though in chenin terms this is really quite fully dry. Good shine and acid strength propels the wine forward and as Anjou Blanc it succeeds with flying colours. Drink 2022-2025. Tasted August 2022.”
