2021 Musset-Roullier ‘Le Moulin de Chateaupanne’ Anjou Blanc

A pure Chenin Blanc that’s all about pleasure: light honey, a bouquet of wildflowers, lemon zest, silk. The perfect thirst-quencher for a spring day or a lunch of Thai coconut curry. All tank made. Aromas of acacia, almond and lime blossoms; very
floral and delicate. Fruity and fresh; finish clean and thirst-quenching.

Located between Angers and Nantes, this family-run estate in the petite village of La Pommeraye enjoys a particularly warm microclimate, which helps to push grapes to perfect ripeness, even in cooler years. Serge Roullier and Gilles Musset combined their family estates on the banks of the Loire River in 1994, benefiting from three generations of “savoir faire” on both sides. The Loire’s native Cabernet Franc and Chenin Blanc have pride of place here; from fruity Anjou Rouge to delicately aromatic Anjou Blanc (not to mention a seductive moelleux), wines are fermented and aged in tank to preserve every bit of fresh, ripe fruit.
