Les Petites Parcelles Vouvray Chenin Blanc
Vouvray, Touraine, Loire Valley, France
Had the 2022 in May of 2024. Was sweeter than expected. Intense fruit all the way through. Apricot and yellow plum come to mind. Bottle says long mineral finish but for me, it was fruit front, center and all the way through the finish. Was interesting but not in my wheelhouse at all. Would look for a vouvray labeled “brut” next time.

A delightful white wine! Fresh and lively. We enjoyed it on Christmas Eve with Seared scallops & garlic-herb risotto.

Continuing to love Chenin Blanc, this one is a good value, nice bright flavor and acid. Nose of pineapple and florals, nice finish.
