This sparkling Vouvray has weight and richness, balanced by intense acidity and a crisp green-salad texture. Lemon zest and quince flavors add the fruit element. It will benefit from another two years in bottle. — (12/1/2012) —92

There’s a serious side to this impressive wine, with its toast and biscuit flavors layered on top of apple acidity. It has richness as well as crispness, and a depth of flavor which promises some bottle aging potential. One of the best sparkling Vouvrays.——R.V.(9/1/2008)—— 90

A curious connection here: the wine is called "Predilection" because apparently novelist Balzac's mistress loved Vouvray. Whatever the reason, the wine itself is fine and complex, with aromas of hazelnuts, layers of acidity, a touch of toast, but still retaining great fresh fruit. ——R.V.(6/1/2006)—— 90
