Tasting Note

Fondraux is our off-dry balance. They always contain residual sugars which provide a tasty and concentrated entry. The register of white flowers stands out, offering a balance combining freshness, roundness, minerality and liveliness

Product Notes

Domaine Champalou Vouvray Les Fondraux is a white wine that is famous for its unique flavor profile that consists of a perfect blend of fruity and floral notes. The wine is made entirely from the Chenin Blanc grape variety that is grown in the vineyards of Vouvray in the Loire Valley region of France. The wine is fermented and aged in barrels made of both oak and stainless steel before it is bottled. This process gives the wine a smooth texture with a crisp finish. It pairs exceptionally well with seafood, poultry, and light cheeses. The Domaine Champalou Vouvray Les Fondraux is a perfect representation of French winemaking and is a must-try for all wine lovers.

About the Winery

Domaine Champalou

Domaine Champalou is a family-run French wine company that has been creating excellent and authentic wines in the Vouvray appellation of Loire Valley for the past two decades. This brand is known for creating different qualities, textures and tastes of Chenin wines. The Chenin grape varietal is known as the king of the Loire Valley; therefore, it is no wonder that the family focuses on this particular grape. Other white Vouvray grapes are also grown in small plots here. There are eight municipalities in the Loire Valley and the appellation spreads across 2200 hectares. All of these are dedicated to growing excellent quality of Chenins. Here, based on the soil quality, climatic conditions and terroir texture of the municipality, the Chenins are used to create dry, sweet or sparkling wines. Out of these 2000 + hectares, the Champalou family owns 21 hectares of Chenin. These are not only found in the Vouvray region, but in the nearby wine-rich areas of Vernou and Rochecorbon.
