Tasting Note

An aromatic nose that gradually reveals its delicate freshness. Fruity notes and a hint of acidity on the finish, creating a beautiful balance. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied, complex and beautifully balanced, with a lovely core and soil undertow, zesty acids and a long, focused and very classy finish.

Product Notes

François Chidaine Les Tuffeaux is a sophisticated white wine that encapsulates the essence of the Loire Valley. Made from 100% Chenin Blanc grapes grown in the iconic Tuffeau limestone soil, this wine has a unique mineral character with hints of flint, chalk, and wet stone. The nose is fresh and vibrant, with aromas of ripe citrus fruits, green apple, and white flowers. On the palate, the wine is crisp and lively, with a good balance of acidity and fruitiness. It has a long, lingering finish that leaves a lasting impression. François Chidaine Les Tuffeaux is a perfect companion for seafood dishes, salads, and mild cheeses.

About the Winery

François Chidaine

François Chidaine’s domaine sits in the heart of the Loire Valley, primarily in Montlouis-sur-Loire, right across the river from its more famous neighbor, Vouvray. The winery is based in the village of Husseau (part of Montlouis), with vineyards sprawling over about 45 hectares: roughly 22 ha in Montlouis, 10 ha in Vouvray (including the historic Clos Baudoin), and the rest under the broader Touraine appellation for reds, rosés, and some Sauvignon Blanc.
