Couly-Dutheil is arguably Chinon’s best producer and they show their talents again with this rare Chinon white (at least 95% of Chinon is red). A marvelous example of Chenin Blanc, it is more mineral–with chalky nuances–and less floral than Vouvray. A firm streak of acidity amplifies the flavors and adds backbone. It’s an excellent choice for roast pork.
