THE RSJ WINE LIST – Spring 2013
|
The
vineyards of the Loire Valley, which stretch from the Massif Central to the
Atlantic Ocean, offer a wonderful diversity of wines. Zinging dry whites; luscious sweet wines;
memorable rosés; light quaffing reds; deep coloured and robust reds that age
magnificently and fine sparkling wines.
They also offer remarkable value for money. |

Outside
of Sauternes the Loire Valley is the greatest world producer of non-fortified
sweet wine. The style is somewhat
different to most other sweet wines.
Due to the Chenin Blanc grape's high
acidity, Layons and Vouvrays,
when late picked for botrytis, have a wonderful balance of fresh, clean
fruity sweetness and acidity. Never
cloying, these wines can live for many years - 100 years plus in great
vintages. These wines are best drunk
with fruit desserts or on their own at the end of a meal or, like the French,
as a special aperitif. They are
especially good with blue cheeses and foie gras. THE LAYON, AUBANCE AND
COTEAUX de SAUMUR These
are several of the main areas for the sweet whites in Anjou. Both the Layon
and Aubance are ambling, somnolent tributaries of
the Loire. When conditions are right
they provide the autumnal morning mists that helps botrytis to develop. |

BONNEZEAUX & QUARTS DE
CHAUME AND CHAUME
|
These
are the two crus of the Coteaux
du Layon and the top growers here produce the best
wines of the Layon.
Quarts de Chaume has just 30 hectares of
vines divided between no more than 10 growers. Bonnezeaux
is larger with 80 hectares and the quality is more variable. |

Half
bottles are a difficult area for restaurants, many suppliers do not have them
and when they do, they will not always be the same vintage as the full
bottles offered. As we import direct
from growers in the Loire Valley, we can and do ask them to specially bottle
some for us. This has met with the odd
refusal and sometimes the premium charged for half bottles can be exorbitant,
but we persevere because our customers like them especially at lunch
times. |
