The future of Loire Valley Chenin Blanc is in single vineyard, dry, terroir-driven whites that can compete with the best in the world for precision, length, complexity and ageability. The late, legendary Jacky Blot and his son Jean-Philippe understood this clearly and focused their domaine on making these crystalline Chenin from their organic sites in the best parts of the appellation. Ever since Jacky first purchased eight hectares of old vines in Montlouis in the late 1980s, he transformed and built up the domaine into one of the Loire’s finest addresses. The beautifully cared for sites are allowed to sing to their full potential, without sugar, without battonage, without malo, and minimal filtration. This domaine is without question one of the inspirational leaders of this growing movement towards world-class single site wines.
