"The single-vineyard, nobly sweet (i.e. in all but name “moelleux”) Aubuisieres 2009 Vouvray Le Plan de Jean evokes aromas of quince jelly, spiced apple, over-ripe cantaloupe. Creamily rich on the palate, yet with a welcome sense of fresh lime juiciness, this wine’s stony, chalky underpinnings (from this rather clay-rich site) help to further buffer its sweetness. There is a succulence, lift and elegance here that too few wines of its vintage, sector, and style achieve, and the finish here is ravishing in its mingling of apple and quince jellies, marzipan, lime sherbet, melon and mineral cling. Expect this to be worth following for a quarter century"92/100 Parker
