An impressive, full and ripe wine, with dryness and fruitiness balanced with more complex mineral and tang. Delicious and finely made.

Langlois-Chateau 2008 Château de Fontaine-Audon Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
Weighty Sauvignon Blanc, going for tropical flavors, very ripe yellow fruits and sweet acidity. The wine is rich, concentrated, keeping a mineral edge, showing some of the intensity of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. A delicious, ripe wine.

This is a ripe, creamy blend of Chenin Blanc, with 20% Chardonnay and 20% Cabernet Franc. Aged on its lees for 20 months, it has a smooth, open mousse, fine, full pear fruit flavors and a touch of mature toast. It is delicious, ripe and elegant. Imported by Paterno Wines International.

Langlois-Chateau 2004 La Bretonnière Sec Cabernet Franc (Cabernet de Saumur)
- Online Exclusive
Still drinking well today, this salmon-hued rosé boasts complex aromas of herbs, spice and melon. It's round and slightly creamy-textured in the mouth, where the pepper and clove notes take hold, underscoring ripe melon and peach flavors. Spicy and fresh on the long finish, picking up a minerally note.

Langlois-Chateau 2002 Château de Varrains Cabernet Franc (Saumur-Champigny)
- $30
For this vintage, this is an impressively dense wine, packed with firm, solid fruits and layers of new wood. There are flavors of black currants, a touch of spice, and refreshing acidity.

Langlois-Chateau 1996 Quadrille Brut Sparkling (Crémant de Loire)
- $24
Fresh and fruity, with a hint of sugared doughnut. Bright pear and apple fruit makes for a nice wine, and interestingly, it closes with an earthiness that is much like amontillado and/or mushroom. Powerful and poised, and quite nice for a Loire Valley sparkler.

Langlois-Chateau NV Brut Rosé Cabernet Franc (Crémant de Loire)
- $30
Dry in character, touched by acidity, this is a raspberry- flavored wine, with a squeeze of lemon. The wine is full, but crisply dry.

Langlois-Chateau NV Brut White (Crémant de Loire)
Smooth and creamy, this is a soft, ripe sparkling wine, its acidity at just the right level of crispness. A round the core of acidity, green plum and grapefruit flavors give freshness and some richness. A great food sparkler.
