Description of Montlouis Tendre "Clos Habert"

Estate

Domaine François Chidaine is a key reference in the Loire Valley, known for crafting white wines of great finesse. Their approach combines respect for the terroir with modern precision techniques.

Vineyard

The vineyard is located in the Touraine region on clay-limestone soils ideal for Chenin blanc cultivation. This terroir imparts characteristic minerality and freshness to the wines.

Wine

This Montlouis sur Loire is a remarkable dry white dominated by Chenin, offering aromatic richness and balanced acidity. The wine features mineral expression, vibrant freshness, and beautiful complexity.

Vintage

The 2020 vintage, marked by favorable climate conditions, allowed optimal grape maturity, resulting in a balanced and precise wine with notable aromatic potential and good structure.

Vinification & Aging

Vinification takes place in stainless steel vats to preserve the freshness and aromatic purity of Chenin. Aging is also done in vats, ensuring a clean and precise wine without oak influence, expressing the terroir purely.
