Lovely description: Chenin Blanc often gets better each time you taste. 🙂

La Moussière Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2023

Domaine Huet

Le Mont Sec Vouvray Chenin Blanc 2023

Honeysuckle, apricot marmalade, persimmon.

Silken. Super balanced. Bought two. One to drink tonight and one to drink down the line.

Tropical fruits, balanced acidity, melts on the palate like a pad of butter made of wildflowers and honey.

Clos de la Coulée de Serrant Savennières Chenin Blanc 2016

Light to mid golden in colour. Aromatics of yellow orchard fruits and melon with a touch of honey/beeswax. An oxidative style - almost unctuous in texture. Great flavours. I don’t drink many Loire Valley wines - this was very good. — a day ago

Le Haut-Lieu Demi-Sec Vouvray Chenin Blanc 1985

The difference 40 years makes is maybe just a thin wooly blanket.

Pull it back and this thing's full of life - bright, vibrant, gas in the tank.

It’s brighter yellow than tired gold. Theres more fruit than decay. Sour apricots and yellow canned peaches, white popcorn and greasy bacon, and that foggy musk.

Acid rips through and does not give. Barely sweet with the demi-sec tag thats written right there but I'm not buying it.

Tonight this is 40 years old, just gettin' goin, just like me.
