The 2013 vintage in Montlouis-sur-Loire required meticulous hand-sorting during late October harvests in cool conditions. The dry Chenin cuvées produced from these rigorous selections demonstrate striking tension and energy. The wine presents a pale hue with green tints and lively aromas of fresh citrus zest, green apple, and verbena. On the palate, the vibrant acidity drives a linear, thirst-quenching, and mineral finish. Rated 3.8 out of 5, this very good and crisp vintage shines with steamed mussels or local Touraine rillons with mustard.
