YOUR RESULTS for "Chenin Blanc"

You like the texture and the minerality of Puligny, but don't want to spend the money? Different grape but same pleasure. This is classic, attractive Chenin Blanc with quality and style. Spice cookies with cinnamon, stone fruits, white peach, a creamy, waxy texture. Fruits of quince, marmalade and apple. Dry, succulent and savory.

Medium aromatics include chamomile and lanolin.  The palate is weightier with more floral notes including honeysuckle. Rich and creamy with slight sweetness, peach and melon.

Lighter aromas of orchard fruits and a touch of melon lead to succulent pear, honeysuckle, and peach on the palate. Medium-weight with fresh lemony acidity; clean and tasty.

"The 2018 Montlouis Les Argiles is bright, finely cut and remarkably nuanced. White orchard fruit, chalk, mint and white pepper give the Argiles a striking aromatic upper register. The Argiles, which emerges from clay-rich soils, impresses more with energy than the breadth I expected. Perhaps that will develop in bottle. This chiseled, finely-cut Chenin has a ton to offer. Bright saline notes punctuate the finish." -Vinous

Aromas are clean with pear, honey and some biscuit notes. On the palate this medium-bodied wine is juicy with cantaloupe, apple, honey, white flowers, crushed rocks and candied citrus. The acidity is mouthwatering and the citrussy finish lingers.

Medium-bodied, stone fruits and tropical/floral aromas lead to peach and apricot flavors with touches of pear and light florality; waxy and round finish.

The plump texture in this complex but approachable white stays focused thanks to the mineral and ginger underpinnings that mark the peach, honeysuckle and quince flavors.

From the Producer: A blend of Old Vine Chenin blanc with Mediterranean varieties, in 2020 this leads to a floral fragrant wine, with crushed stones, blanched cinnamon and an enticing nectarine and flinty focus. The full, layered palate is balanced by a vibrant acidity and flavours of yellow grapefruit and hints of aromatic spice.
