Winery Review: The cool climate in the Vouvray appellation area insures good acidity, which is balanced by the distinctly fruity character of the Chenin Blanc and the mineral qualities imparted by the soil. Thanks to these natural elements, the Vouvray combines elegance and vigor with honey dipped pears and inherent freshness.
My Review: This light yellow colored wine has a very potent alcohol smell, making it difficult to really smell any undertones. There might have been hints of apricots, but overall, it smells of alcohol. When tasted, the heat was almost overwhelming and I could taste a hint of pear, but just a small amount. This wine was tasted without food.
