2*Coup de Coeur

Hachette

"This 2014 immediately seduced the jury with its brilliant pale yellow color crossed by green reflections. It opens with intense notes of white flowers and citrus fruit. The palate is no exception: fresh from the start, it reveals a tangy character with fine lemony notes and great length. A highly aromatic, energetic wine that will age well and go well with seafood". (Le Guide Hachette des vins 2016)

About the wine:

This 2014 seduced the jury from the outset with its brilliant pale yellow color with green highlights. It opens with intense notes of white flowers and citrus fruit. The palate is no exception: fresh from the start, it reveals a tangy character with fine lemony notes and great length. A highly aromatic, energetic wine that will age well and go well with seafood.

About the domain :

A full-bodied, tasty Chenin with white fruit aromas. Harmonious, elegant palate. Long, fleshy finish.

An excellent Chenin that has nothing to envy its best Vouvray neighbors. Excellent Q/P ratio
