TASTING NOTE: Tasting just like the 2014, only richer and sweeter (although Xavier told me the goal here is less obvious sweetness), the 2015 Muscat de Beaumes de Venise offers a stunning nose of white peach, honeysuckle, sugar water and apricot. Full-bodied, rich, unctuous and decadent, with a big mid-palate and nicely balanced sweetness, drink it over the coming couple of years. Drink Date: 2016-2018. Score - 93 (Jeb Dunnuck, robertparker.com, Dec. 30, 2016) |
