Themed Tasting Event : Appraising Chenin Blanc

  • Vynluna Wines - Tasting Studio Room 309, 3/F, Yu Yuet Lai Building, 43-55 Wyndham Street Central, Hong Kong Island Hong Kong SAR China (map)

起源於法國的Loire Valley,Chenin Blanc以其高酸度、清爽風格和多變面貌而聞名,它可演化成乾型葡萄酒、甜酒、靜態酒,甚至氣泡酒。特別是製作成乾型葡萄酒時,Chenin Blanc具有強大的陳年潛力,會散發出濃郁、如蜂蜜般的風味,可與Burgundy的一些優秀白葡萄酒媲美。

對於那些欣賞由Chardonnay釀成的Burgundy白葡萄酒的複雜性和精緻性的愛酒人士,我們誠邀您參與這次品酒活動,發掘Chenin Blanc 成為優雅、具陳年價值的白葡萄酒的可能。

我們將先品嚐 Minimalist Wines Experimental Blanc Chenin Blanc 2021,這是一款來自南非、作為新世界例子的Chenin Blanc。接著,我們將品嚐來自Loire Valley 的著名産區Savennières的酒莊 Domaine Laureau 的兩種特釀:Domaine Laureau Savennières Les Genêts 2018 和 Domaine Laureau Savennières Le Bel Ouvrage 2016。由於兩款酒的葡萄生長在莊園的不同土壤中,您將體驗到Savennières 風土的不同風味。最後,我們將品嚐 Domaine de la Noblaie Chinon Chenin Blanc 1990,去展示Chenin Blanc如何隨著時間而演變。

快來一同了解為什麼Chenin Blanc是一款值得更多關注的白葡萄酒。

名額只有 10 個。詳情請參閱海報。

Originated in the Loire Valley of France, Chenin Blanc is best known for its high acidity, refreshing character, and versatility to be made in a range of styles, from dry to sweet, from still to sparkling. Particularly when made in a dry style, Chenin Blanc has great potential to age gracefully, developing rich, honeyed flavors and an elegant style that can challenge some of the great white wines from Burgundy.

For those who appreciate the complexity and sophistication of White Burgundy made from the noble Chardonnay grape, we invite you to join us at this tasting event and discover the possibilities of Chenin Blanc as an alternative for some beautiful, age-worthy white wines.

First, we will taste the Minimalist Wines Experimental Blanc Chenin Blanc 2021, a New World example of Chenin Blanc from South Africa. We will then try two different cuvees from Domaine Laureau from the esteemed commune of Savennières in the Loire Valley: the Domaine Laureau Savennières Les Genêts 2018 and the Domaine Laureau Savennières Le Bel Ouvrage 2016. Originating from vineyards with differing soils, you will experience different expressions of the Savennières terroir. Last but not least, we will taste the Domaine de la Noblaie Chinon Chenin Blanc 1990, which is an excellent example of how Chenin Blanc can age beautifully over time.

Join us to discover why Chenin Blanc is a white wine that deserves more attention.
