Thierry Nerisson (who is actually the head sommelier at Tour's top restaurant, the two star Jean Bardet) rents certain vineyard sites, does all the work himself, limiting yields and working as naturally as possible. He also rents part of a chai and makes the wines himself on the property. I have been searching for a wine like this for some time. A Vouvray that is classic and yet can be enjoyed now and by anyone with an open mind to try it. Forget everything about sweet, cloying chenin blanc and get into this Thierry Nerisson Vouvray Sec Souple $13.99 a pure, vibrant wine full of fresh pear, apple and stone aromas that is rich and ripe, clean and perfectly dry.
