2010 Le Gravelot: AC Touraine Chenin Blanc 4 great summer evening


Fabulous mid-summer evening in London. A glass (or two) of the easy drinking, undemanding 2010 Le Gravelot from Clos du Porteau – lemony with a light touch of honey – an ideal start to the evening. Under the reformed AC Touraine 100% Chenin will no longer be allowed – lunatics running the asylum.


The 2010 Le Gravelot is made by Isabelle de Clermont Tonnerre.
