Why You'll Love It
Terrific value for Chenin of this quality. Perhaps because Anjou isn't terrifically sexy? At least, that's the reputation... This wine defies that heinous notion. Soft and finely textured with stoney minerals and a chalky feel. Vibrant fruits like pink lady apple, fleshy white pear and razor sharp citrus marry perfectly, leading to a long luxurious finish. This wine is not overt, glittering or in-your-face. Rather, it is quietly assured, classical and charming. The type of wine you might take when meeting the in-laws for the first time; a wine that demonstrates sophistication.

The meticulous work and commitment brought to each vintage allows them to subtly combine traditions, terroir and creativity.
Winemaking Information
Made from 100% Chenin Blanc grown on schist and sandy-clay soils, Clair de Lune is fermented and matured on its fine lees for six months. This extended lees ageing adds texture and roundness while preserving the freshness and bright acidity that are hallmarks of Loire Chenin Blanc. The result is a dry, harmonious wine with both richness and elegance.
