92 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 1994 Coteau du Layon offers an intriguing range of sweet tobacco, dried flowers, candied orange peel and earthy notes. Time in bottle has given the 1994 notable complexity, but it also retains a palpable sense of firmness that differentiates it from the lusher 1997 taste alongside it. Even though the 1994 has the depth and character of a 25 year-old Coteaux du Layon, it also has the sense of reserve that I find intriguing. It’s the sort of wine that demands the attention of the taster. The 1994 is a touch rustic, and yet immensely pleasing. Drink: 2020-2025. (Oct 2020)"
91 points Wine Spectator: "Time has added a dry, taut edge to the core of mango, white peach and papaya flavors, with extra chamomile and honeysuckle nuances filling in liberally on the finish. Lovely green tea and white ginger echoes as well. Impressive for this rather modest vintage... 150 cases imported. (11/30/16)"
