Jenny, de wijn was inderdaad niet volgens de regels van de AOC, derhalve “verboden”, ik vond het volgende stukje tekst: “Couly-Dutheil Interdit (Vin de Table) 2003: The result of harvesting Chenin Blanc in two tries, the second of which was as late as December, producing a sweet wine with 100 g/l of residual sugar. The local appellations don't allow for this, of course, hence it is bottled as a vin de table and labelled Interdit (”forbidden“). Not a particularly exuberant nose, but there are some notes of botrytis present. It has a rather light, lifted character. It does not have a great deal of concentration in truth. It has some appeal, is certainly clean and of some character, but in all honesty I find it an interesting curiosity rather than a wine of high merit. 15/20 (August 2007)”
