Grape

An emblematic grape variety of the Loire Valley, Chenin produces elegant and expressive wines. It is distinguished by its vibrant freshness and aromas of apple, pear and white flowers, sometimes enhanced by honeyed or mineral notes. Highly versatile, it can be vinified as dry, off-dry, sweet or sparkling wines.

History

Grown in the Loire Valley since the Middle Ages, Chenin owes much of its development to monastic communities, which helped establish its presence and reveal its remarkable ability to express terroir.
