Love it. Plump and juicy with salted plum before being tempered with a dusting of dried herbs thanks to the Cab Franc. We're calling it Autumn in a glass so play your favourite rendition of Autumn Leaves – Nat King Cole maybe?

Timothée Delalle La Burette Rouge 2022

Six months on lees for a more tactile finish that sits soft and lets all the lemon pulp, orchard fruits and honey soak into your palate and warm your soul. Loire Valley Chenin is a special thing so this is a great gifting wine.

Béatrice et Pascal Lambert Le Droit Chenin Blanc Chinon 2023

Jasnières is the most northerly of the AOC’s in the Loire Valley. This is razor sharp and alive with savoury minerals – think flint and some wet stone, before a lift of chamomile and raw honey come through. An amazing entry into Chenin for Chardonnay and Gris lovers.
