    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    One of the great Vouvray vineyards vinified in the Taille Aux Loups cellars in Montlouis (and therefore, by dint of French AOC red tape, unable to bear the name Vouvray). A top quality 1 hectare south facing vineyard on Vouvray's renowned 'Premiere Cote'. The vines here sit in limestone with a sprinkling of clay and flint on the surface and the resulting wines are some of the appellations finest. 2016 was a vintage hit hard by frosts, the domaine registering just 9hl per ha on average! Which makes the results all the more staggering. A seamless, concentrated but lively Chenin that tastes of flint soils and elegant, salty, moreish citrus fruit. V impressive.
