Montlouis-sur-Loire Les Choisilles Sec - Francois Chidaine

The Montlouis-sur-Loire Les Choisilles Sec by Francois Chidaine is a pure and sophisticated expression of Chenin Blanc, a grape variety that finds its ideal terroir in the AOC Montlouis-sur-Loire. This wine is characterized by meticulous vinification that prioritizes the use of natural and spontaneous techniques, avoiding interventions that could alter the original expression of the grape as much as possible.

The Les Choisilles cuvée is a non-dosed wine, where aromatic refinement and structure blend harmoniously. On the nose, it opens with intense notes of white-fleshed fruits, white flowers, and a slight minerality, which leads to an enveloping and fresh sip. The well-integrated acidity is accompanied by a smooth texture that provides length and persistence on the palate.

Ideal as an aperitif, this wine pairs beautifully with fish dishes, shellfish, and goat cheeses. Its ability to evolve over time also makes it an excellent candidate for aging, promising to develop new and intriguing complexities. Each sip of the Montlouis-sur-Loire Les Choisilles Sec is a journey into the refined winemaking traditions of the Loire, offering a rich and persistent sensory experience.
