Grape

Chenin Blanc

Origin
This Vouvray is a top expression of the Chenin Blanc grape. Created by top winemaker Paul Buisse, this off-dry style of Vouvray is typical of the style from this region, the most important white wine appellation in the Touraine district.
Taste
Demi-sec in style, the extra sweetness is reined in by a cleansing acidity, balanced by a mixture of apple and peach fruits.
Enjoy
Superb with those hard-to-match spicy chicken dishes, or simply as a summery apéritif, this wine is best drunk young and chilled.

    Great value for this quality

    Perhaps not quite the quality of a Bourillion-Dorleans Vouvray, which Majestic have in stock occasionally. But nevertheless, a fine example of the off-dry joys, that demi-sec Vouvrays can provide. Great value for money for this quality of wine, and compared to the cost of equivalent German wines. If you have never tried this type of wine, this provides the perfect introduction.

    A nice little bit of fruit

    Having been bowled over by Sauvignan Blanc for a few years now, I have been looking for a slightly sweeter alternative, with a little fruit rather than a lot. South African Chenin has filled some of the gap, and history told me to find where it was the Huguenots originally grew it, and I stumbled on the Loire, and Vouvray. A nice bottle on its own, with fish, or with aromatic cuisine

    We normally drink very little white wine. This was purchased vith the Anjou for medicinal reasons.i.e.constipation. TReason: Low in alcohol,lightly sweetened,rich in tartrates and glycerine which act as stimulators of theintestinal mucos.. Reccommend two glasses a day with lunch of dinner. Hope this is of use to your clients, Maurice

    Perfect

    I haven't drunk wine in over 15 years after developing a type of intolerance which resulted in the slightest sip giving me horrendous heartburn. I bought this in store for my husband to try who cracked it open at home & suggested I try a drop. Well I am now a 'Vouvraddict'. It doesn't disagree with me (I'd appreciate any ideas from connoisseurs why this may be so!) and tastes delicious. Just the right amount of tang with a beautiful aroma. Oh and I don't need to use a dreaded corkscrew to open it. Just perfect for a summer's evening... or a winter's evening after a hard day's work...... in fact, any time.
