Michel Autran Vouvray Ciel Rouge 2017
Type: White
Producer: Michel Autran
Country: France
Region: Loire Valley
Grape: Chenin Blanc
Year: 2017
Farming: Organic
The 2017 wine shows a pale bright gold color, with subtle, very elegant high-toned aromas of poire william, green apple, grapefruit, fines herbes, wet stone and honey with a hint of oak. The palate is a rather intense blend of white fruits, minerals, grapefruit pith, firm chalky acidity and bright citrus flavors that will need a few years to integrate. Showing a bit more weight than the "Enfers Tranquilles" the wine is nevertheless equally crystalline and intensely mineral.
