Tasting - Les Clos Francs Vouvray Chenin Blanc



Name - Les Clos Francs Vouvray Chenin Blanc
Variety - 100 % Chenin Blanc
Region - Loire Valley
Country - France
Year - 2013
Price - $21, Sale $7.95
Winery Review - "The cool climate in the Vouvray appellation area insures good acidity, which is balanced by the distinctly fruity character of the Chenin Blanc and the mineral qualities imparted by the soil. Thanks to these natural elements, this half-dry Vouvray combines elegance and vigor with sweetness and an inherent freshness."
My Review - This crisp white Vouvray packs some heat among orange citrus notes. A bold earthiness in the undertones of the wine make it feel slightly heavy, while a dry, tart finish leaves my mouth wanting more.
I tasted this on its own with no food.
