Vouvray is a well-known appellation of Loire Valley’s Touraine district in France. Wine production in the region is common but heavily depends on the weather conditions. Cooler climates in Vouvray lead to production of dry styles of wine while warmer climates tend to yield sweet styles of wine.
Chenin Blanc is nearly the only grape varietal that gets produced in Vouvray. There are some grape variations like the Arbois although it is considered to be a rare occurrence. Chenin Blanc grapes are planted across thousands of acres in Vouvray, making it the largest grape production in the region.
Chenin Blanc is known for its high acidity, especially when it is produced in dry style. Nevertheless, Vouvray wines are often characterized by honey, flower, nuts and fig that make delicious and complex wines.
