Tasting Notes: Pale gold. Fresh citrus, green apple, pear and white peach on the nose, with a hint of ginger. The palate is easy-drinking and balanced, with ripe pear and stone fruit, bright acidity and a clean, fruity finish.
Notes: Les Athletes du Vin is a negociant project from a group of French winemakers focused on honest, value-driven Loire wines. The Chenin comes from vines around 35 years old in Touraine and is made to showcase fruit and freshness.
Food Pairing: Goat cheese, grilled fish, shellfish, roast chicken, salads and light Asian dishes.
Winery Story: Les Athletes du Vin was conceived by a group of French winemakers who wanted to make typical, affordable wines from the Loire Valley. The range is built around fresh, expressive wines from old vines and good sites.
