Domaine Ogereau, Anjou En Chenin, 2024

Domaine Ogereau’s Anjou En Chenin 2024 is a striking, modern expression of Chenin Blanc from the Loire, balancing precision, texture, and vibrant mineral energy. Sourced from schist-rich parcels in Saint-Lambert on the left bank of the Layon, it captures both the purity of the grape and the character of its terroir in a beautifully dry style.

Tasting Notes
Pale green-gold in the glass, this wine opens with an expressive aromatic profile of golden apple, grapefruit peel, crushed stone, and freshly squeezed lime. Subtle layers of white flowers, orange citrus, Asian lime leaves, acacia honey, toasted bread, and fresh nuts add depth and finesse. On the palate it is juicy, refreshing, and medium-bodied, with impressive acidity and a discreet creamy touch from lees aging. The finish is lively, crisp, and mouthwatering, lifted by a perfectly judged grapefruit bitterness that adds grip and persistence. It should drink beautifully now, while retaining the structure to develop further complexity over the next few years.

Production
The wine is made from 100% Chenin Blanc grown on several schist parcels in the Saint-Lambert area, where the soils lend tension, minerality, and energy to the finished wine. The vines are around 40 years old on average and are farmed biodynamically and organically, with meticulous hand-harvesting and strict selection of only the ripest bunches. In the cellar, the grapes are gently whole-bunch pressed before the must undergoes natural settling. Fermentation is followed by partial malolactic conversion and a short period of lees aging in large used oak barrels, which softens the acidity and adds texture, breadth, and complexity without overshadowing the wine’s freshness.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent food wine, especially with fresh goat cheese, seasonal white asparagus, and delicate spring dishes such as stone bass roe. It also works well with shellfish, lightly sauced fish, and vegetable-forward cuisine. Serve chilled at around 8–10°C; decanting is not necessary, though a little air can help it open in the glass.
