2024 Domaine Pichot Coteau de la Biche Vouvray Sec

Domaine Pichot is a 24Ha family estate in Vouvray on the right bank of the Loire, where vignerons dedicate their time to the cultivation of Chenin Blanc, locally coined ‘Pineau de la Loire’, to produce dry, sweet and sparkling whites. The Coteau de la Biche is the only vineyard of the estate, planted on silex layered over limestone slopes. It is the spot of choice to make dry whites of great class, displaying the richness of ripe Chenin with a minerality that can rival that of the grandest Chablis. The la Biche undergoes a combination of ferments in both stainless steel and 400 litre barrels.

A long time customer favourite, this luscious, fruity and highly refreshing Vouvray, delivers incredible bang for your buck.

Brilliant pale straw colour with green highlighted edges and a watery hue. Elevated pear, rosewater and honeysuckle scents are trailed by whiffs of quince and Jonathan apple skin. Luscious pear, red apple and musk flavours are underscored by a fresh line of chalky acidity. Subtle honeysuckle and quince elements act as a back drop. Long refreshingly fruity finish.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
