Touraine Clos de la Plante Martin 2014 is Chenin Blanc from the Loire Valley. Sourced from a unique limestone-rich parcel in Chinon, the wine reflects the region’s signature mineral tension and aromatic clarity. The 2014 vintage provided a long ripening period, yielding fruit with concentration and a refined structural profile. It exhibits notes of quince, lemon oil and a distinct flinty minerality. Following maturation in oak, the palate is lithe and energetic with a vertical structure. It possesses a piercing acidity and a persistent saline finish that highlights the elegance of Chenin Blanc on tuffeau soils and the site-specific approach of Charles Joguet.
