Chenin Blanc (versatile and juicy)


A bottle of Chenin Blanc is bursting with juiciness. You will find a variety of fruit as you go from one region to another. Little wonder that it can please crowds: it is easy-drinking and it is relevantly cheap, so you can really please the crowds coming to your house warming party.

BEST REGIONS:

* SOUTH AFRICA:
One of the two top producers or Chenin Blanc, which sinned(!) believing that worldwide production can equal worse quality. So be careful and don't let South African winemakers pull your legs. A good bottle will be juicy with lime and guava notes in front and it will be... a good bottle.

*FRANCE - Loire Valley:
Those chaps are more serious about Chenin Blanc than others. Alors... to begin with, Savennières (made near Savennières in Loire Valley) is made entirely from Chenin to produce acid wine with apple notes. So give it a try and see its true self.

Quite nearby, in Vouvray, they work hard on another good-quality Chenin wines characterised by appley fruit again. And a nice surprise for those indecisive - Vouvray can be dry, medium or sweet so try whichever you feel suits you. Voila!
