"The Domaine of Marc Bredif is one of the most famous names in the Loire, renowned for the longevity and quality of his Vouvray. Established in 1893 under the name of Château Les Roches it wasn't until 1919 when Marc Bredif took over from his uncle, that the name was changed to mark the change of ownership. The ethereal Chenin Blanc from Marc Bredif remains a benchmark for the region; delicious, nervy and vividly sketched when young it morphs into an infinitely complex wine with age taking on characters of dried honey, lanolin and calvados, still with that ceramic-like sheen of minerally acidity." - Negociants
The best Chenin Blancs from Vouvray are renowned for their longevity - lifespans of 20, 30 and even 50 years are not uncommon for the best examples from top producers.What do they taste like? They're delicious, nervy and vividly sketched when young, and morph into an infinitely complex wine with age taking on characters of dried honey and baked apple pie!
A match to terrine or quenelles, delicate pork recipes and small game
Deep honey straw hue. Dried fruit bouquets, figs and prune, quince, honey and acacia notes.
A lovely warming palate, baked stonefruits and honeyed fig flavours, citrus anjelica and grapefruit, a lovely softness is balanced by freshness and gentle acidity. A memorable finish of developed fruit characters and freshness
