Chinon is a lovely commune nestled along the banks of the Vienne River, it has a population of less than 10,000 people. The most noted wines from this region are red Cabernet Francs, but we really love the white wines made here with Chenin Blanc. Like this one called Les Chanteaux by Couley-Dutheil.
The bottle bears a label that looks like a cover of a fairy tale book. Inside there is an elegant, rich, complex wine with deliciously abundant mildly sweet floral fruit flavors.
