A Loire Valley Chenin Blanc from Vouvray, made by Chateau Moncontour (Vignobles Feray) in the off-dry demi-sec style. The fruit is harvested from the "La Monaco" plot about a week after the estate's Sec grapes, allowing extra hang time. After slow, low-pressure pressing, the juice ferments in temperature-controlled tanks at 17°–18°C for roughly a month, with fermentation stopped when acidity and residual sugar reach balance. The nose shows lemon zest, lime, ripe white flowers, honeyed lift, green apple and apricot. The palate is soft and round with ripe apple, melon, citrus freshness, honeyed floral notes and firm acidity. The finish carries apple skin tartness and stone fruit, closing near-dry.
