Get to know: Les Coteaux Tufiers, Vouvray

Tasting Note

A delicious off-dry style of Chenin Blanc with aromas of just-picked walnuts, quince and acacia honeyed notes. The palate is honeyed with cooked apple and zesty greengage. The sweetness is perfectly integrated and balanced, resulting in a refreshing wine with good length.

Try this with goat’s cheese or bright spiced seafood dishes.

Producer Info

This wine is sourced directly from growers in the heart of the Vouvray region for over 20 years. Their old vine Chenin Blanc plots lie on chalky, tufa-laden plateaux (‘Les Coteaux Tufiers’) above the Premieres Côtes de Vouvray. Grapes are hand harvested at optimum ripeness to ensure a good sugar level which is necessary for the Demi-Sec style. Cool vinification is followed by élevage on fine lees to ensure maximum concentration.
