French Excellence | Loire Chenin Blanc | Loire Artisans since 1885

Tasting Notes

Stunning in its elegance and freshness, which carry through the ripe, fruity palate, marrying with hints of honey and apricot. An excellent Chenin Blanc.

A poised, fresh yet textured expression of Loire Chenin Blanc.

Why you'll love it: it was one of our bestsellers last year, a proven crowd-pleaser that drinks beautifully on its own or right across a meal.

Reviews

93 points, Sam Kim, Wine Orbit (May 2023): "A lovely rendition of the variety showing baked apple, wet wool, lemon zest."

The Wine

The grapes come from selected clay-limestone terroirs on the Vouvray plateau, overlooking the Loire River. Harvested at peak ripeness and gently made, then carefully aged in tufa chalk cellars, the wine keeps its freshness and delicacy.

About Famille Bougrier

Since 1885, six generations of the Bougrier family have made wine in the Loire Valley, creating delicate, subtle wines while working with the utmost respect for the land and the people who tend it.

Perfect with: fresh goat's cheese, roast pork tenderloin, or apple tarte tatin. The wine's natural acidity and gentle sweetness suit both savoury dishes and dessert.
