Wednesday evening entertainment. From the days when Richard was still using the Anjou appellation. #anjou #cheninblanc #richardleroy #chenin #wine
Today our barrels are getting a treat: a nice steam bath :)
Some 20 minutes of treatment will make sure they are free from germs to receive our 2025 #Chenin. Still some patience required before you get to taste it..

Kudos to the #Vouvray families and vignerons who donated bottles to the #WineParis Vouvray tastings, marking 90 years since the appellation was created in 1936. Fascinating wines, from largely less familiar domaines. These will be written up on Winedoctor. #wine #loire #chenin
In my latest Weekend Wine report I check in on the 2013 Vin de France Chenin from one of the great names of the Touraine Azay-le-Rideau appellation, Pascal Pibaleau.

Mein Lieblingswein von unseren Freunden aus dem #Anjou ist von Fallstaff mit 92 Punkten ausgezeichnet worden und damit unter den Top10 der #Chenin Blan Trophy! Bin Mega stolz! www.falstaff.com/de/tastings/...
Topping up the Chenin levels before I head to Bordeaux. #francoispinon #bernardbaudry #vouvray #chinon #chinonblanc #lacroixboissee #cheninblanc #chenin #wine
Sunset in #anjou #vineyard, truly an emotional moment : rest for #Chenin vines before the next vintage. Buds are full of promise. #Loirevalley #pruning #winegrowers
Looking good; the 2015 L’Echelier Blanc from Roches Neuves - another one for my forthcoming 2015 at Ten Years report. #loire2015 #saumur #saumurblanc #chenin #cheninblanc #rochesneuves #wine
Gotta love #Loire #wine. Great value from both. #Chenin blanc. Love Château d’Epiré and Jacky Blot’s Taille au loup.
From my favorite producer of Vouvray bubbly. 2012 Pinon no dose is such a lovely beverage.

Great day for picking some nice #chenin!

An ignominious end. Happily I had drained the contents before I dropped it. Phew. #richardleroy #anjou #anjoublanc #chenin #cheninblanc #loire #loirewine #loire2005 #wineoftheday

#Chenin blanc proudly have produce many clusters, for a 80 years old vine... a dream to have this plot. #Saumur #2025vintage seem to be become amazing. Harvest for sparkling wine is started. #loirevalley weather is still hot and dry and #sunburns on clusters are observed. #Cabernetfranc coming

Topping up the Chenin levels while packing my bag for Bordeaux. This has no declared vintage, but the lot number tells me it is 2010. At 15 years it is evolved, toasty, bitter and bone dry (with a touch of oxidation to the development). Delicious! #francoischidaine #montlouis #chenin #cheninblanc
Bought this well over 12 years ago at the Domaine d'Orfeuilles just north of #Vouvray village. A simple wine in its youth it is now a complex dry tropical fruit, tinned mandarin delight with light oak influence and that gorgeous acidity of a #Loire #Chenin.
And so cheap back then! #Wine
A quite stunning visit to Château de Fesles, with a tour of vineyards and cellars, and vintages young and old tasted, culminating with this beauty. Certainly one for TWI. #fesles #chateaudefesles #bonnezeaux #anjou #loire #chenin #cheninblanc #wine
Wine of the week from last Saturday...served with salmon salad. I bought a case at Domaine D'Orfeuilles north of Vouvray village. 1 left now after nearly 15 years 😪

This smells like #Chenin to me — or a very confused #Pošip trying to blend in at a French dinner party 🍋😉

Mas Jullien blanc 2022 A blend of 70% #Carignan blanc and 30% #Chenin blanc
Great #wine from #Languedoc Pale yellow, mineral nose with scent if pine needles, vanilla and white fruit and citrus. I may prefer this to their red. Hard to get unfortunately. #Herault
Insolite from Thierry Germain. #Loire #Chenin Somewhat a little flat. Buttery, but lacking the matchstick nose. Balanced and proper but just finishes short. You get much better value with Épaulé Jeté from Catherine & Pierre Breton at half the price. #wine
Stellenrust barrel fermented chenin is not subtle...it smacks you in the face with tropical fruit salad and woody vanilla... was on offer in Tescos. Bloody delicious but as I said not at all subtle! Much better than the cheaper chenin without the silver shield!

C'est bon ça 😍 Un #chenin de Touraine sur les fruits exotiques, l'ananas, le bois encore un peu (trop) perceptible #LoireValley #Bonnigal-Bodet
