Dense and textural, with honeyed fruit and wet stone minerality that speaks to the harsh vintage. The palate shows impressive concentration. What little fruit survived the frost carries remarkable depth and Loire Valley precision. Chenin Blanc at its most expressive, balancing richness with crystalline acidity.
