This cuvée is now a perennial favorite after it began as a result of the the devastating frost shortened harvest of 2021. The results are very fine with beautifully delineated fruit and mineral components that ooze classic Loire Chenin. Quince confit & white fruit flowers lead into a wine with linear mineral structure widening out into a generous textbook statement in the mouth that could easily have achieved AOC status in either Montlouis or Vouvray, where the grapes were grown.
