2021 Jasnières Chenin Blanc
Jasnières | France
Beautiful aromas of yellow apple and dried honey lend way to bracing acidity and creamy texture. A delicious cool climate Chenin Blanc from the little known appellation of Jasnières in the Loire Valley of France.
Racy, slightly honeyed, perfumed, and loaded with minerality, this wine is an excellent representation of how Chenin reacts to the local conditions. A hint of sweetness if expertly balanced with the wines bracing acidity and fruit concentration.
