Love it, we really slowed our buys post 2007, maybe just a couple other vintages.

Typical chenin nose, wet stones, tropical fruit, firm acidity and a pretty good dose of sweetness, all in balance. Great stuff — 24 days ago

Foreau - Domaine du Clos Naudin

Vouvray Sec Chenin Blanc 2017

Popped and poured. The 2017 Domaine du Clos Naudin, “Sec” pours a deep straw color, medium viscosity with no signs of sediment or gas. On the notes, the wine is developing with beautiful notes of stone fruits; peaches and apricots with melon and some associated fruit cup notes. There’s a honeysuckle floral component too. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+/high acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and there is some really attractive texture. Impeccable balance. I get the sense that this will age well. Drink now and through 2030.
