The 2017 vintage in Montlouis-sur-Loire is distinguished by aromatic precision, focus, and aristocratic balance. Following spring frost, optimal summer warmth fostered highly concentrated, healthy fruit. The wine reveals a brilliant gold hue and a complex bouquet of baked apple, bergamot, fresh hazelnut, and chalk. On the palate, the wine is dense yet kinetic, propelled by mouth-watering salinity that lingers on the finish. Rated 4.5 out of 5, this divine vintage represents the pinnacle of dry Chenin on flinty soils. Exceptional alongside seared scallops or aged Comté cheese.
