Domaine Sérol, Chenin Blanc "Champtoisé", Loire Valley, France, 2022
{biodynamic} 100% Chenin Blanc
GOLDEN APPLE & LEMON, STEELY MINERAL & FLORAL FLOURISH
These young Chenin vines planted in the Champtoisé lieu-dit in 2018 may be fresh on the scene at the Sérol estate, but they’re already producing quality fruit and the wines in turn are showing remarkable concentration of flavor. Mouth-enveloping ripe apple and citrus swept up in mineral intrigue and slipping into a gorgeous lengthy finish, Stéphane and Carine Sérol continue to outdo themselves as trailblazers in this satellite region of the Loire- Vive Loire Volcanique!
Serving Suggestion: Marry me chicken w/ sun-dried tomato, spinach, & lemon. Sole meunière. Creamy polenta w/ roasted pearl oyster mushrooms.
