Oh Chenin Blanc how I love thee! This Vouvray reveals a hint of sweetness and lovely orchard fruits with just the right amount of acidity. Delicious right now, I am sure this wine will age gracefully for years. This bottle will be lucky to make it for another hour!

Disappointed. Ripe apricot aroma. Juicy nectarine with orange rind, almost botrytus in the finish. Made for America it seems. Big body and loss of elegance. Structure and minerality are practically gone. #SaveVouvray #wine

Golden in color.

Intense nose of diesel, melons, white flowers, wood, honey, grapefruits, white pepper, minerals, spices and herbs.

Full bodied with medium acidity.

Off Dry on the palate, and fruity, with citrus, lemons, honey, apples, melons, butter, wood, nuts, spices and white pepper.

Medium finish with limes.

This French Chenin Blanc is Balanced and smooth with a great mouthfeel and nice complexity. Easy drinking just by itself, I paired it with a Charcuterie board.

I didn't like the nose much, but the palate was wonderful, rich and inviting.

Grapes were grown in clay soils, and were hand picked. Aged in wood barrels.

I had the 2010 vintage, a while ago, and enjoyed it as well. This could age very nicely.

12% alcohol by volume.

Definitely wants spicy foods. Residual sugar is balanced by good acidity. Wine-searcher says it's Demi-sec but I can't find that anywhere on the bottle.
