WINE DESCRIPTION

Clos du Gaimont Vouvray is a white wine produced by the Domaine de Vaufuget in the Loire Valley of France. The wine is made from Chenin Blanc grapes grown in the Vouvray appellation, which is known for its limestone-rich soils and cool climate. The vineyards are located on steep slopes overlooking the Loire River, which provides ideal growing conditions for the grapes. The winemaking process involves gentle pressing of the grapes and fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the wine's fresh and fruity character. The resulting wine is crisp and refreshing, with notes of citrus and green apple, and a hint of minerality on the finish.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Clos du Gaimont Vouvray is an exquisite white wine from the Loire Valley in France.On the nose, it offers aromas of apricot, white peach and honeydew melon, with a hint of wet stone and floral notes. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and vibrant, with a good balance between the ripe stone fruit and juicy acidity. The finish is long and minerally, with a delightful lingering of ripe citrus and orchard fruits. Overall, this is an excellent example of a classic Loire Valley white.
