"A very rounded and lush white, this displays notes of freshly cut Jonagold apple, honeydew melon and honeysuckle, which glide through the finish, where a hint of heather chimes in. Drink now through 2013. 500 cases made. -JM"

Product Description:

"White Chinon is about as rare as it gets. With only 2% of the AOC planted to Chenin Blanc, white Chinon is made by only a handful of estates; only a small amount is allocated to the United States. Jerome Billard's version resembles a top flight Montlouis with beautiful freshness and often mineral complexity. A waxy, floral masterpiece grown on steep hillsides high above Chinon." -Importer
