Alain de la Treille Les Folies Vouvray is made from 100 percent Chenin Blanc.
This is our newest Loire valley project, with an Eco friendly lightweight bottle and a screwcap.
Les Folies Vouvray is stunning with its elegancy and freshness which is carried through the ripe fruity palate, manned with hints of honey and apricots.
Les Folies Vouvray goes well with Asian food, fishes, charcuteries, BBQ pork spareribs or simply as an aperitif.
This chardonnay has a characteristic pale yellow color with a shade of gold and subtle nose that will remind you the fresh butter nuts and roasted almonds. On the palate, it is full bodied and fruity with a pleasant roundness.
Average age of the vines is 25 years old.
We produce a part of this cuvee with 12 hours skin maceration and another part from directly pressed grapes.
Wine was slightly filtered before bottling to insure the wine remains stable.
Best friend as an aperitive or with freshwater fish, shellfish and goat cheeses.
Adelsheim Vineyard Chardonnay Staking Claim is made from 100% Chardonnay.
Review:
Grapefruit pith, flint, roasted almonds and toasted lemons here. It’s medium-bodied, flinty and gently toasty with bright acidity and a fresh, tight finish. Sustainable.
