Absolutely lovely. Both viscous and linear, crystalline yet dense. Much more classic Chenin profile than the Clos Michet, this is showing only a slightly reductive flinty top note. Everything else is pure Chenin. Awfully Vouvray-like.

Nice nose of white fruit, apples and some honey. The wine shows a nice minerality, freshness and elegance with a good tension, purity of fruit, balance and delicious. Nice value and a good change from Chard. 90-91

Nez de fruits blancs, pomme, un peu de miel. Bouche avec une belle minéralité, fraîcheur et élégance, acidité avec une belle tension appuyée, fruit pur, équilibrée et savoureuse. Bon rapport QP.

My first ever, a fine Chenin Blanc, nose wonderful, apples, creamy pear and some spicy notes too, taste is bonedry, with an acid grip( which I like) a youngster but works with oven cooked Hake, asparagus, new potatoes and my beurre blanc with saffron🥰🇫🇷
