Chenin blanc Chinon Domaine de la Commanderie 2019
A 100% Chenin Blanc wine, from younger vines. The grapes are pressed immediately after harvest and then vinified at a slow pace, at low temperature. The lees are deliberately not filtered. After the wine has been in contact with it for several months it develops a more complex aroma and flavour. This is an elegant and well-balanced wine with notes of ripe yellow fruit, citrus zest, yeast and a long aftertaste.

This is a long and diverse region in western France, adjacent to the Loire River, which produces interesting wines - from charming and fruity to rich and long-lasting. A representative of the red varieties here is Cabernet Franc and the wines from Bougainville and Chinon are excellent, but in fact the white varieties are the specifics of the Loire. The most common are Chenin Blanc (Vouvray), Melon de Bourgogne (Muscadet) and Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre, Pouilly Fumé). Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé have come out of the shadows of their region and can be said to be well known around the world - the former with the typical mineral-herbal character of the wines, and the latter with the greater complexity of the body and aroma due to contact with oak, although the variety is the same - Sauvignon Blanc.
