Monnet V.S.O.P Review

Like a freshly baked fruit pie plucked straight out of the oven, this expression delights with rich notes of baked apples, caramelized nuts, and sweet vanilla. Where some bottles at this age and price point fall disappointingly flat on the finish, this V.S.O.P. lasts on the palate for an age. There's no need for dessert if you have a pour of this on hand.
