Reminded me of Savennières. Really interesting. The CF is the better QPR though.

Beaudry Chinon Blanc “La Croix Boissee” & this freaking gem of a record. Chinon Blanc & Drummer as bandleader is excellent counter-norming.

Rare chinon blanc
EnCore jeune, jaune clair
Nez miel et epice
Bouche ample ronde avec une masse tannique comme un rouge.
Beaucoup de gras en finale avec des notes de miel, de fleurs lourdes et d épices
Bel equilibre global mais dans un registre plein et dense.
