Vincent et Tania Carême Vouvray Spring Sec 2010
Vincent et Tania Carême Vouvray Spring Sec 2010

Vintage	2010
Region	Vouvray, Touraine, central Loire Valley

Grapes	100% Chenin Blanc
Alcohol (a.b.v)	13.0%
Food	Aperitif, fish, chicken, veal
Next day	Even better
Drink	Excellent now, or over the next 3 to 5 years
A delightfully limpid pale gold colour. The nose exudes freshness and vitality, yet is at the same time really quite complex, with aromas of freshly cut lime, greengage and quince, with subtle hints of tree blossom, straw and wet wool. There are also some distinctly herby/spicy elements, with particular notes of cinnamon, clove and fennel seed. The palate too is exceedingly clean and fresh, yet very tangy, with rhubarb, Bramley apple and zesty/oily citrus flavours offset by herby nuances, a hint of salty savouriness. And although actually quite rich and concentrated (and with barely perceptible residual sugar - 5.2 g/l) the freshness is maintained by a wonderful core of stoney minerality and utterly mouth-watering acidity, which carries all the way through to a very long finish. *Although I suggest (above) that this wine may drink nicely for the next 3 to 5 years, that is merely a conservative estimate, for I suspect that it has the structure to evolve for much longer than that. A brilliant wine!
