2024 will be remembered as a true winegrower's vintage, marked by exceptional rainfall, intense mildew pressure, and a significant overall drop in volumes across the Loire Valley. The harvest, which came late, began in mid-September to allow for optimal ripeness despite the weather conditions. The resulting wines are light in alcohol, fruity and easy-drinking.
The colour is pale golden yellow with green highlights, a sign of a Chenin in its first youth. The nose, fresh and expressive, opens with notes of Granny Smith apple, pear and orchard fruit — a clean, precise aromatic palette, true to the 2024 vintage. The palate is lively and taut, carried by a beautiful natural acidity. The long, mouth-watering finish marks a wine equally at ease as an aperitif or at the table, capable of accompanying a meal from start to finish.
