The only one of 5 Moulin Touchais tried ('86, '64, '59, '49, '45) that showed any real signs of age on appearance - developed 'old gold', but still healthy - not yet bronze; lovely cream and stone fruit aroma; lovely developed palate, thick-textured, rich but not complex, and drying out a little on the finish. Later, more caramelly - creme brūlee character. Though technically not great (any longer), still enjoyable and a remarkable wine at nearly 60 years of age.
Tasted at our 'Loire Valley Sweet Classics' tasting, 27th January 2004.
