Domaine du Clos Naudin (Foreau), Chenin Blanc, Vouvray Sec, Loire Valley, France 2019 sustainable slender freshnessWhen Foreau issues a Sec (and the decision to do so relates entirely to the vintage conditions and the composition of the grapes at harvest), the wine can carry from 1 to 2 grams of residual sugar but never more than 6 grams. Because of the vibrant acidity that accompanies these wines, the sensation one experiences is of drinking a scintillatingly dry wine, although one with considerable body and a honeyed texture.
