Tasting note

Honeyed Chenin Blanc from the Loire, perfumed with fresh hay, kept taut and lively by lemon acidity yet with a welcome touch of sweetness.

Vinification

From 35-year-old, densely planted (6,600/ha), short-pruned bush vines on chalky clay with silica near Vernou. Hand-harvested, whole-bunch basket pressed, wild fermented at 18°C, unfined, unoaked, then bottle-aged in the family's 13th-century rock-hewn cellars.

Food Match

The ultimate cheese wine. Has the acidity to cut through creamy textures, but also a hint of sweetness to partner blues. By the same token it works well with shellfish and chilli heat.
