Chidaine Montlouis "Clos du Breuil" Sec

Vintage: 2022
Description: The Chidaine Montlouis-sur-Loire "Clos du Breuil" is from a great parcel of 60 year-old Chenin Blanc vines, next to the Clos Habert, sloping to the northwest, on soils of clay with silex stones ("perruches") over the white limestone "tuffeau." Biodynamic farming. Always a dry and very crystalline Chenin, equal in quality to the "Les Bournais" but in a more austere, mineral style more typical of Montlouis. The 2022 is quite dense and earthy, very marked by the silex soils. The wine will need a few years to really open up, but is showing subtle aromas of stone, citrus, almond, lemon and ripe pear, with elegant white fruits on the silky, round palate with a slightly bitter, mineral character, with citrus zest and saline, earthy notes in the finish. Delicious now with cod, sole or flounder, but this will be interesting
