Why shop with us?
Montlouis Sec Clos de Mosny from La Taille aux Loups is a precise, dry Chenin Blanc from one of the Loire Valley’s most respected addresses. Sourced from a single vineyard in Montlouis-sur-Loire, it reflects the purity, tension, and mineral drive that have made this estate a benchmark for the appellation.
Tasting Notes
Expect a pale, bright straw color with excellent clarity. The nose typically leans toward crisp orchard fruit, citrus peel, white flowers, and a distinct flinty, chalky minerality.
On the palate, it is dry, focused, and beautifully textured, balancing freshness with subtle richness. Notes of green apple, lemon, quince, and wet stone are usually framed by lively acidity. While already expressive in youth, it also has strong aging potential and can develop greater depth, honeyed nuance, and complexity over time.
Production
Clos de Mosny is a single-vineyard site in Montlouis-sur-Loire, an area known for limestone-rich soils and ideal conditions for Chenin Blanc. The vineyard’s terroir helps preserve freshness while adding a pronounced mineral character. Harvesting is typically done with great attention to ripeness, and the wine is vinified with a restrained approach to preserve site expression and varietal purity.
Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with shellfish, roast chicken, asparagus, goat cheese, and lightly creamy seafood dishes. Serve it chilled at around 8–10°C. Decanting is usually not necessary, though a short aeration can help if opened very young.
Producer
La Taille aux Loups is the acclaimed domaine of Jacky Blot, a pioneering name in Montlouis-sur-Loire and the wider Loire Valley. The estate has earned an outstanding reputation for showing the full potential of Chenin Blanc, especially in dry styles, and is widely regarded as one of the region’s reference producers.
