1997 Pierre Soulez Savennieres Moelleux La Roche aux Moines Loire Valley France
Pierre Soulez is one of Loire Valley’s finest winemakers, yielding a broad range of outstanding wines. This wine has benefited from botrytis, the noble mold that concentrates the sugar, acid, and flavor in the grapes, resulting in a well-balanced, luscious sweet wine called moelleux. Savennieres produces some of the most long-lived white wines in the world. This excellent 1997 should easily last 15-20 years when properly cellared.
