The finely framed 2022 Vouvray Sec provides calm and tenderness as well as a fine powdery chalky texture on the finish. It exudes a sense of effortlessness. While it's light in body, it has plenty of substance. Wild fermented in old barrels, it has subtle fruit characters of nectarine, red apple and florals combine with an integrated nutty lees character on the long, balanced finish.

A bit of a heart-stopper, the latest Vouvray Sec release from Domaine Foreau has everything you could want: an intense, savoury, mineral nose and a softly honeyed, rounded palate. In the mouth the wine evolves, revealing its powerful, mineral depth and complexity. Deeply savoury on the finish, with light oak spice. This feels like an iron fist in a velvet glove, delivering delicious Chenin bitterness and a very long, juicy, lemon-mineral finish. Perfectly balanced, with 5g/L residual sugar. Unique and wonderful. Can be drunk now, but will easily last 20 years or more. Fermented and aged in old 300L barrels.
