Producer Profile

François Chidaine is the producer who put Montlouis firmly back on the map of world class Chenin Blanc’s.

Tasting Note

An aromatic nose that gradually reveals its delicate freshness. Fruity notes and a hint of acidity on the finish, creating a beautiful balance. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied, complex and beautifully balanced, with a lovely core and soil undertow, zesty acids and a long, focused and very classy finish.
