2018 Coteaux-du-Layon Chaume Premier Cru Echarderie opens with an intense and elegant noble and refreshing bouquet of citrus fruits such as limes lemons and oranges intertwined with honey and stone fruit as well as stony aromas beautifully pure and precise. Playful and refined on the palate this is an elegant dense and stimulatingly salty and crystalline Chaume that offers remarkable drinkability and gastronomic talent due to its fine piquancy on the salty-grippy finish that doesn't take away the sweetness but lifts it making the wine's lovely ripe fruit component a fine pairing with many dishes not only from the Asian cuisines.
