Although the Loire is a region that has not embraced the cru system, it makes an exception when it comes to the magnificent sweet wines around the tributary of the Layon, near Angers. Quarts de Chaume is made from Chenin Blanc, and offers up a complex symphony of Seville orange bitterness with sweet candied citrus peel depth. The wine is intensely perfumed with honey, flowers, quince and apricot. It shows outstanding acidity which cuts through the concentrated sweetness. 2021 was a challenging year in the vineyards, and only the most dedicated we able to achieve noble sweet wines. This example from Domaine des Forges was only produced in tiny quantities and is available exclusively in 50cl bottles.
