🍇 Domaine de la Renaudie – Touraine-Chenonceaux Blanc

AOC Touraine-Chenonceaux: an Elegant, Full-Bodied, Aromatic Sauvignon Blanc

The Touraine-Chenonceaux Blanc from Domaine de la Renaudie is a dry white wine from the Touraine-Chenonceaux appellation d’origine contrôlée, in the heart of the Loire Valley vineyard. Located between the Cher and the Loire, this appellation showcases carefully selected terroirs to produce expressive, elegant white wines with a rich aromatic intensity.

Made from Sauvignon Blanc, this cuvée comes from carefully selected plots on the slopes facing the Cher. Domaine de la Renaudie favors these terroirs for their ripeness and aromatic potential, producing white wines that are rich, fresh, and complex.

The Touraine-Chenonceaux Blanc captivates with aromas of ripe fruit, notably pear and apricot, accompanied by citrus notes. Its full-bodied, generous palate retains a pleasant freshness that balances the richness of the fruit. Aging on fine lees helps develop the wine’s body and complexity.

This cuvée pairs perfectly with fish, seafood, white meats, and cheeses. It is ideal for lovers of fine Loire whites seeking a dry, aromatic, and elegant wine that is equally enjoyable as an aperitif or with food.

🌿 Terroir and Vinification:

Domaine de la Renaudie is located in Mareuil-sur-Cher in Loir-et-Cher, in the heart of the Touraine vineyards. The estate grows several white and red grape varieties on silty-clay soils, whose stony surface absorbs heat during the day and releases it at night.

The Touraine-Chenonceaux appellation showcases carefully selected plots particularly suited to producing quality white wines. The slopes facing the Cher benefit from a microclimate favorable to ripening the grapes and developing their aromas.

The Sauvignon Blanc provides citrus notes, ripe fruit aromas, and the freshness characteristic of fine Loire whites. For this cuvée, the estate uses traditional vinification: the juice is separated, the grapes pressed, and the must racked before fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks.

Fermentation is conducted at a controlled temperature to preserve the aromas. The wine is then aged on fine lees for several months, a method that develops its body and aromatic complexity without masking the grape’s freshness.
