Tasting Note

A phenomenal Chenin de Loire. This wine shines with a luminous clarity, offering a delicate and refined aromatic profile. Gentle notes of honeysuckle, crisp green apple, white pepper, and ripe yellow stone fruits rise from the glass. On the palate, it reveals the true character of Chenin Blanc—layered and textured, with a vibrant, mouth-watering acidity that brings energy and lift to its structured frame.

Product Notes

François Chidaine Montlouis Sec Les Bournais is a stunning white wine that showcases the unique terroir of the Loire Valley in France. Made from 100% Chenin Blanc grapes grown in the Les Bournais vineyard, this wine is a true expression of the region's limestone soils and cool climate. The wine displays aromas of ripe citrus fruits, white flowers, and a hint of honey, leading to a palate that is vibrant and fresh with a lovely minerality. With its balanced acidity and lingering finish, François Chidaine Montlouis Sec Les Bournais is a perfect pairing for seafood dishes, salads, and creamy cheeses. This wine is a testament to François Chidaine's skill as a winemaker and his dedication to producing exceptional wines that reflect the essence of their terroir.

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.
