1988 Nicolas Joly Clos de la Coulée de Serrant Savennières Chenin Blanc

9.1

Deep golden color but no over-the-hill honey or nut character. Intense aromatics and flavors. All acid and stones at first but after sitting in a decanter all day, coaxed ripe tropical fruit out too. Textured and nuanced

9.3

Эфирный, объемный нос, чистый, полный вкус. Персики, желтый грейпфрут, спелые яблоки, разнотравье, жасмин, щавель, мокрый камень, соленая вода. Хороший тонус и все ещё бодрая, уверенно несущая свой возраст структура. Без большой комплексности, но с хорошим равновесием.
