Anthologie Chenin Blanc
-- Parker: The mind-blowing Coteaux du Layon Anthologie may merit a perfect rating after it is bottled. Possessing highly-expressive ripe peach, apricot and blood orange aromas, this powerful, viscous (yet delineated!), superbly balanced wine offers a full-bodied, layered personality jam-packed with red cherries, raspberries, candied apricots, pineapple, quince, liquid minerals and flowers. Its unbelievably long finish reveals traces of stones, blueberries, herbal tea and cardamon. This wine brings together the elegance and refinement of the wines from the top traditional Coteaux du Layon producers and the concentration, sugar and power of the 'sugar hunters.' Bravo! Of the three 'sugar hunters' I visited, Delesvaux's wines are the most balanced and harmonious so I do not question their ability to withstand extended cellaring as I do with others. 97-99/100
