Saturday night and I have opened the 2011 Domaine Vigneau-Chevreau Vouvray Chenin Blanc.

On the nose there are notes of honeysuckle, chamomile, saffron, sake, marzipan, honeydew melon and brioche.

On the palate there is quince, hints of lemon, marzipan and honey.

This wine is in the stage of change becoming more aperitif like. The wine is medium bodied with medium + acidity that leads into a lightly salted honey finish.ets have a great weekend and please stay safe. Nostrovia! 🥂🥂🥂🥂

Wine of the night on Halloween with fondue. Another sprightly Chenin Blanc.

V. Good with a stir fry. Vouvray is worth a look when you don't want a chard.
