Lise & Bertrand Jousset Vilain Petit Chenin 2022

€23.28

100% Chenin Blanc. Half from schist and calcareous soils, and the other half from clay and flint soils. Vilain Petit Chenin means “Chenin’s Pranksters” 🙂 They name it because it took time and effort for its vinification. Both Chenins were vinified as separate. Fermentation and aging in tanks for 10 months, and assemblage 2 months before bottling.

It has pleasant aromas of fresh pear, white peach, honeysuckle, and lemon pie. Very clear and beautiful acidity on the palate, the unique minerality makes the lingering finish.
