It's a Vouvray Friday! The nose is very tight. Having a hard time picking up the suttle notes. Definitely get minerality, some banana, and orange peel. On the palate I am getting pineapple, honey, a good minerality and wet pebbles. Not a lot of acidity but enough to know it is there. Not a bad Vouvray but just not up there with my go to Vouvray's. Nostrovia!

Bought this one for a friend and we all thought we'd give it a shot tonight. The Vouvray appellation, from the Loire valley, is primarily known for growing Chenin Blanc. Chenin Blanc is known for its high acid character which makes it a popular grape for sparkling wine. ~$18 | #totalwine #vouvray #cheninblanc
On the eyes: Straw yellow, star bright, no stain, med tears, no gas/floc.
On the nose: White peach, unripe pear, and soft mineralty. Med- alcohol.
On the tongue: med tannin, med alcohol, med+ acid, round mouthfeel, med body. White peaches, apple, and a touch of lemon. Smooth mineralty on the way down with a slightly cloying finish when warm.

Very zingy, with loads of acidic zip and a light tomato leaf greenness on the end after the main act of apples and wet stones. Smoky flintiness on the nose. Better with food (tomato-based dish); a touch simple and austere when unaccompanied. Decent value.
