CHÂTEAU MONCONTOUR |
| Bright medium straw colour. Attractive, slightly spicy, faintly honeyed, ripe melon-apple puree nose.

Has 12% alcohol and 13 g/L residual sugar with lot number L9/10/2015 on the lower part of the glass bottle. Even better than the recommended 2011 (**/**+) released on July 5, 2014 at $18.95. |

A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: One of the top Vouvray sparkling wines, this 2012 is still young. That gives it almond, quince and pear flavors along with intense bright acidity. It is still missing the richer, toasty character that will come with age. Drink from 2016. Editors' Choice. Score - 91 (Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, Aug. 2014) |
