About this product
From the Clos de la Bretonnière — a walled vineyard on deep sandy silex soils producing Montlouis of exceptional mineral precision and aromatic intensity. Bone dry, Jacky Blot's Chenin from this site shows extraordinary depth: quince, lemon curd, tufa mineral, beeswax, white flowers, and a saline finish that develops extraordinary complexity with age. A wine of great seriousness and longevity — Montlouis at its finest.
