Four months lees contact ensured a mouth coating creaminess on the palate with a lively crisp acidity to finish off. Altitude vineyards make this Chenin Blanc truly unique.

Clos Palet Vouvray 2018

admin — Wed, 03 Feb 2021 13:52:46 +0000

The grapes underwent a quiet, long pressing and strict juice selection, followed by 24 hours of settling. A second sorting was carried out prior to the alcoholic fermentation and took place in stainless steel tanks. Temperature was monitored over the course of a month and a half and the lees were stirred every days to ensure a smooth fermentation. Following fermentation, the wine was racked and aged in stainless steel tanks on its fine lees for four months in troglodyte cellars. -Importer

Domaine De Vodanis Sparkling Vouvray

admin — Wed, 03 Feb 2021 13:51:48 +0000

Editor’s Choice — From vineyards around the town of Rochecorbon on the banks of the Loire, this beautifully balanced wine is dry while full of honey and almond flavors. It is cut by the intense acidity of Chenin Blanc, just showing signs of developing toasty flavors. The aftertaste emphasizes green and citrus fruits.

Huet Clos Du Bourg Moelleux Premier Trie 2018

admin — Wed, 03 Feb 2021 13:51:36 +0000

The 2018 Vouvray Clos du Bourg Moelleux Première Trie is fine, pure and vital on the remarkably complex nose, initially with white asparagus and mushroom aromas, but with more aeration, fresh toast, oak and flinty notes take over. The palate is sweet and lush but serious, vibrantly fresh and highly elegant, provided with fine and lingering tannins as well as a lovely touch of fresh oak. Still sweet but delicate and vital, it has a highly attractive juiciness that is structured but serious, along with firm tannins extracted from the oak barrels. The darker toned, Pinot-like Première Trie is perhaps even finer and saltier than the beautifully balanced and finessed regular Moelleux and needs more time to integrate all its components. Tasted in May 2019.

(formerly La Petite Roche) L’Alliance is sourced from La Petite Roche, a lieu-dit just west of the village of Savennières located on a gentle southern and southeastern oriented slope facing the Loire river. Here Damien has some younger vines of Chenin planted on sandy grey schist soils. While fruit from La Petite Roche makes up the majority of the blend, there is a small percentage of press wine from Genêts added. – Importer

admin — Wed, 03 Feb 2021 13:49:21 +0000

As the unofficial drink of the Riebeek Valley, Chenin Blanc is the perfect every day wine that offers uncomplicated quality for the novice and connoisseur alike. Packed with upfront melon fruit, the nose charms with an abundance of guava and gooseberries as well as the signature hint of honey. The palate follows through with fruit flavors balanced by a crisp acid to ensure a fresh and fruity style of wine. Enjoy well-chilled as a lovely crisp glass on its own but ideal for al fresco dining and with light summer fare. Beautiful with salads, anti pasti and seafood. – Winery
