Clos des Plantes, Poïèsis 2023 Shiraz you’ve done it againPlace: Loire, France Grape: Chenin Blanc Vibe: Natural, textural Chenin Blanc from some enviable vines in Montbenault (Anjou), with a couple of half decent vignerons operating out of the neighbouring plots Olivier Lejeune is at the helm of Clos des Plantes, and is working wonders. Veering toward the tropical, exotic end of the Chenin spectrum here. Fruit power and complexity is all kept in check by soaring acidity. A banger. ABV: 12. 3%
