2024 Pichot Vouvray Coteau de la Biche Sec

Domaine Pichot is one of Vouvray's most historic producers, with vineyard holdings, the famed Coteau de la Biche stretching back 1770.

They are best known for their stunning sweet wines, making benchmark examples of moelleux & demi-sec as well as a small amount in a dry style and a little sparkling. This is a dry Chenin Blanc from Vallee de Nouys, typically thought of as some of the best terroir to produce the tighter, drier Chenins of the region.

It's tightly wound, chalky and focused as well as showcasing the lovely honeysuckle and green apple characters that are hallmarks of the variety. 

Terrific entry point into Domaine Pichot and the wonderful world of Loire Valley Chenin Blanc.
