Description

Didier and Catherine Champalou have been established in the heart of the appellation for over fifteen years and have acquired over 20 hectares of Chenin. Their philosophy is simple: to create wines that respect the grape variety, the terroir and the nature of the vintage. The Champalous are registered with the Terra Vitis programme which is a charter that promotes sustainable farming and respect for the environment by maintaining a good balance in the soil, the terroir and the plant and limiting chemical applications. Champalou makes beautiful, ethereal Vouvray. His wines have a rounded, tender, almost buttery texture with suggestions of apples and ripe quinces sheathed in delicate threads of honey. The gorgeous floral Vouvray Brut should be sampled in a field (Elysian or otherwise) with a gobload of wild strawberries. This cuvée was traditionally known as pétillant.The base wine for the Brut is the tendre which undergoes a secondary fermentation in the bottle with the residual sugar of the wine. The estate calls this 'pétillant naturel'. The cultivation of the mousse takes place in the troglodytic cellars where the cool ambient temperature contributes to the finesse of the bubbles and the aroma of the Chenin is allowed to re-establish itself after the second fermentation. Delightful nose of honey, sweet hay and quince, lively acidity supports the rich apple fruit.
