Domaine des Hauts Baigneux - Chenin Blanc

In 2013, friends Nicolas Grosbois and Philippe Mesnier bought 12 hectares of vines in Azay - le - Rideau, an excellent yet less - known terroir near Chinon. This area is famous for its rich and decadent Chenin Blanc. The 2018 wine is first fermented in stainless steel tanks and then aged in 3 - 4 year old French Oak barrels. The result is a super - aromatic, powerful and alluring wine. It pairs perfectly with aged soft cheeses, ribeye, and seafood. It's truly a food - friendly gem!

This 2018 Domaine des Hauts Baigneux Chenin Blanc is a delight to enjoy. When serving, let it breathe for about 15 - 20 minutes to enhance its aroma. It's best served chilled at around 8 - 10°C. For food pairings, as mentioned, it goes great with aged soft cheeses, ribeye, and seafood. Just open the bottle carefully, pour it into a wine glass, and savor it. Store the remaining wine in the fridge and try to finish it within 2 - 3 days to maintain its flavor.
