Beaumont Family Wines Chenin Blanc Demi-Sec 2016
I have only made a demi-sec style of Chenin once before. The Loire has
always made
beautiful demi-sec styles. The grapes came from our oldest
vines planted in 1974. The natural fermentation didn’t fi nish completely
dry in this one barrel so I decided to keep it like this and bottle it as a
potential wine for my CWG offering. I love the way it expresses the grapes’
purity with that slight bit of residual that makes the wine more complex and
layered.
