Tasting Story

Chenin Blanc is the Loire’s most expressive grape, and in the hands of Domaine de la Garrelière it truly shines.

Notes of baked apple, honey, and white flowers unfold over a chalky, mineral freshness. Biodynamic farming brings balance and quiet energy — ripe without heaviness, textured without clumsiness. The wine evolves in the glass, rewarding patience and attention.

A thoughtful, nourishing Loire white with depth and life.

Serving Tip

Best served at 10–12 °C. Enjoy now, or cellar for a few years to develop richer honeyed and savoury notes.
