Great Chenin Blanc from the Loire! Dry but with great fruit.
2021 Goliath Vouvray Loire...$22.99
The clay and limestone soil of this region translate to rich, fruity and well-balanced wines from this talented winemaker The nose is very expressive with aromas peach, apricot and mango. The attack is smooth and elegant thanks to the residual sugar. Nice length and great balance between sugar and acidity. This Vouvray is especially flexible, pairing nicely with lighter fare, like salads, vegetables, white fish, and soufflé. It also goes well with pork tenderloin, spicy chicken, sushi, trout and veal. The grapes are pressed as soon as picked. The wild yeast fermentation makes it longer to finish. No sulfites added until the final week before bottling. The lees are stirred on a daily basis to add texture to this beautiful Chenin.
