Domaine Jourdan & Pichard Chinon La Croix Boissee 2021

The irresistibly delicious 2021 Croix Boissée Chenin Blanc opens with a captivating bouquet of citrus blossom, ripe pear, green apple, and a hint of flinty minerality. On the palate, it fulfills its aromatic promise with crisp acidity and complex flavors of green apple, Meyer lemon, and underripe peach. A delightful tension exists between the wine's vibrant fruitiness and its steely minerality, highlighting the unique terroir of the Chinon region. While it's delightful on its own, it pairs wonderfully with any rich dish.
