Domaine FL - Château de Chamboureau
Color: luminous gold with subtle golden highlights. Nose: ripe pear, white flowers, fine beeswax and wet stone. Palate: ample and deep, with superb tension, a chiselled texture and saline minerality carrying through to a long, vibrant finish. Pairing: roasted turbot, brown butter and preserved lemon. Comment: a great terroir-driven Chenin, racy and majestic, whose depth, energy and remarkable precision reveal the full nobility of Roche aux Moines.
