2020 Famille Vaillant Grandes Vignes Le Malabe Sec


"....Chenin Blanc from the Vaillant's parcel in Bonnezeaux. With the 2020 vintage being particularly powerful here, they took a patient approach with the wine, aging for 1 year in large barrels with some new (though a very light toast) and then an additional year in porcelain and gres (sandstone)....."

Excellent showing with nice acidity and classic chenin blanc palate. Delicious with chargrilled branzino.
