Winemaker Notes
The honey and white acacia blossom in this Vouvrays perfume is a rare treat. The wine has youthful deliciousness and great aging potential.
Importer Notes
Its hard to believe that nearly thirty-five years have passed since we first began importing Didier and Catherine Champalous wines. Few producers in the wine world boast such a consistent record, where each release is an honest and reliable ambassador to an appellation, a grape, and an entire region. The Champalous are masters of Loire Chenin Blanc, producing Vouvray in all styles; this still, dry rendition, aged in stainless steel, represents their flagship cuve. Gentle and refreshing on the palate, it boasts a delightful balance of stony minerality with luscious, almost honeyed fruit and flowery notes, making for a great apritif or easy pairing with all sorts of dishes. Didier and Catherine love to cook, and they will often produce an aged bottle or two to serve with a creation from the home kitchen. Best of all, their daughter Cline has joined the domaine, so we can hope for another thirty-five yearsat least!of delicious, terroir-driven Vouvray crafted with heart and soul.
