Notes BeMyWine : The “Vénus” cuvée is a 2018 Savagnin left to ferment for several years, like the “Étrange” for those familiar with this cuvée. Fermentation stopped naturally, leaving residual sugars higher than allowed by the appellation (around 5?g/L), hence its classification as Vin de France. Original and rare!
Dégustateur : RP Note : 96
The 2018 Venus is a Savagnin from 2018 fermented for eight years, but a little more sugar remained than the appellation allows (it has five grams), so it's sold as Vin de France. It has complexity and a faint spicy twist, with notes of dried yellow flowers, serious and not exotic. The palate feels dry, there is no sweetness and it does not reach the complexity, depth and nuance of l'Etrange. It was bottled a couple of weeks before I tasted it, but it feels very balanced and has the stuffing to age nicely in bottle. 2,200 bottles produced.
