93 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2018 Montlouis Moelleux is another fabulous wine in this range. The natural gravitas of these old vines works so well with the Moelleux style in yielding a rich, deep Chenin loaded with character. Dried pear, mint, tangerine oil and apricot are all laced together in this highly expressive, nuanced wine. Drink: 2023-2033. (Oct 2020)"
92+ points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "Sourced in Vouvray (but vinified next door in Montlouis, thus marketed as anonymous Vin de France), the 2018 Vin de France MÅ“lleux opens pure, fresh and chalky on the nose, with mandarin aromas and remarkable finesse and elegance. On the palate, this is a quite sweet yet refined and elegant Chenin doux with a juicy yet refined, finely tannic and mineral finish. Tasted in March 2021. Drink: 2021-2040. (Aug 2021)"
