Domaine du Margalleau Vouvray Sec AOC 2022

GOLD! - INTERLOIRE COMPETITION
A CLASSIC LOIRE VALLEY CHENIN BLANC!

 

"A classic dry Vouvray made from 100% Chenin Blanc. This wine is crisp and refreshing with aromas of white flowers and citrus, with green apple, quince and minerality on the palate." - Wine House  

 

"100% Chenin Blanc sourced from vines aged 40+ year old. A fresh and mineral delight in youth. Citrus, grapefruit, apple blossom, flinty aromas lead on to flavors of lemons and limes, green apple and onto a lingering flinty minerality in a seductive finish. 

Hand-harvested, fermented on indigenous yeasts and aged in temperature-controlled, stainless steel tanks. Residual sugar is less than 5 grams per liter (undetectable).

Four generations of the Pieaux family have dedicated their lives to Chenin Blanc, crafting refined wines from the region’s chalky and mineral-rich “tuffeau” soils (the same stones used to build the Loire Valley’s legendary chateaux).  Estate vineyards also contain a good amount of flint & limestone (found also in Sancerre) that contributes more complex aromas and enhances the wines’ already lively mineral body.

Respectful of terroir and biodiversity, the Pieaux family practices environmentally responsible viticulture." - Winery
