Customers have long enjoyed the pure Chenin version of Le Fief du Temple from Franck Châtelain. With the 2021, however, he's slightly changed tempo and brings you his Colombard Chenin blend, crafted as always at the Bougrier's family estate in the Touraine. The result is a lively, fresh and fruity white, with attractive roundness and weight thanks to a few months resting on its lees. The Colombard portion, a grape rarely found in the Loire, brings the juicy green apple and ripe nectarine notes, while Chenin brings lively citrus notes that make this white so refreshing. A pure joy to drink. Le Fief clearly shows that the Loire offers much more than top Sauvignon. Enjoy this white with creamy chicken, grilled fish or a lightly spicy stir-fry.
