Wine Critic Reviews
A complex, vibrant bouquet of white flowers and citrus fruit with a touch of gunflint. Dense, fleshy texture on the palate but perfectly balanced with engaging tension that brings freshness and length. Excellent wine. This wine does not usually undergo malolactic fermentation and is aged in 600-litre demi-muid vessels.

From three- to 19-year-old vines, the 2019 Montlouis sur Loire Les Bournais displays a golden-yellow color and a dense, well-concentrated and aromatic bouquet with tropical fruit aromas and, currently, still prominent lactic notes with straw aromas that intertwine with delicate flinty and earthy notes. Intense, tight and salty on the palate, this is a serious as well as tannic Chenin that reveals remarkable finesse and length. Still young but with excellent aging potential. Tasted in March 2021.
