Tasting Note

Fairly moderate in sweetness at about 25 G/L RS this is a luminous, golden-hued Chenin Blanc with aromas of quince, apricot, honeycomb, and a touch of orange blossom and spice. The palate is gently sweet but vibrant, with lively acidity balancing flavours of baked pear, citrus peel, and a subtle saline finish. Textural, expressive, and perfectly poised.

About the Winery

François Chidaine

Nestled on the south bank of the Loire River in Montlouis-sur-Loire, Domaine François Chidaine stands as one of the Loire Valley's most respected producers of Chenin Blanc. The estate's modern winery is located in the village of Husseau, with vineyards stretching across three appellations: around 20 hectares in Montlouis-sur-Loire, 10 hectares in Vouvray (north of the river), and 7 hectares in the broader Touraine zone for reds, rosés, and Sauvignon Blanc—totaling about 37 hectares of biodynamically farmed land.
