Vouvray
See Vouvray producers See a list of Vouvray wines See map
Based just outside Tours, in the Touraine district of the Loire, the 2,000 ha small semi-continental Vouvray appellation covers a range of dry, through off-dry, sweet to sparkling styles. Its Chenin Blanc vineyards perched above chalky `tuffeau' cliffs give the wines vibrant acidity and a stony floral, at times waxy character.
Ideally, under perfect skies, the producers aim for Moelleux sweet wines, hand-harvest by `trie', often imbued with noble rot and rich with residual sugar.
A less successful season would deliver more demi-sec, sec and, if really tough, sparkling/mousseaux. Vinification is largely in large inert vessels, such as stainless-steel, old oak foudres and demi-muids. Malolactic fermentation is avoided.

A truly outstanding 100% Chenin Blanc sparkling wine from the Loire, from the chalky white soils of Vouvray in fact, that would put many a (grande marque?) Champagne in the shade! Years of 'sur lattes' ageing has endowed this wine with rich biscuity intensity as well as grace, no doubt ... MORE |

No surprise that the famously warm 2009 vintage should turn out some decent Chenin Blanc Moelleux in the Loire. This, Gaston Huet's Le Mont, fermented and aged in used french tonneaux captures the brilliance of the vineyard with its quiveringly stony greengage fruit yet is wrapped in ... MORE |
