Montlouis-Sur-Loire L’Equilibriste (Sw.) 2022

Story: Damien and Coralie Delecheneau, the winemaking team behind La Grange Tiphaine, have played a pivotal role in the revival of quality wines from the Touraine. L’Equilibriste is the domaines’ sweetest wine, with a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity that highlights the why exceptional sweet Chenins are among the finest dessert wines in the world.

Vinification: 80-year-old Chenin vines on clay-flint and limestone soils.

Grapes are hand harvested in multiple passes and sorted on-site. Grapes are gently pressed and half of the wine is fermented and aged in stainless steel, the other half in old barrels, both for 8 months. The wine is not racked to keep the maximum freshness of aromas.

Match it with: Fois gras, tarte tatin or other carmelised dessert, rich cheeses.
