Robert Parker (90)

The Moulin Touchais 1985 Coteaux du Layon smells alluringly of baked apple, apple jelly, pink pineapple, and heady flowers. Lusciously rich on the palate, yet not lacking cut or clarity, it carries honey, baked apple and grapefruit into a long, rich, if not rivetingly complex finish. Heaven knows I would be delighted for the opportunity to sip a glass of either of these in a restaurant, whether as aperitif, with foie gras, or in lieu of dessert.

BOW (8)

Richard Kelley MW: Mid-full. Complex appearance. Orange/copper. Clean, attractive. Spanish brandy-like nose with notes of confit peach or pear.

The palate shows great focus on entry, with
echoes of the aromas from the nose: brandy-soaked peaches. Toasty.

Well textured but a wine defined by its acidity which runs through the core and carries through to a somewhat (positively) phenolic finish. There is a savoury hint showing too.

This was always my personal favourite vintage of the decade, but today competes
against the 1988 and 1983.
