The 2024 Domaine Pichot Coteau de la Biche Vouvray Sec is sourced from vineyards positioned on the prized south-east-facing slopes of the Vallée de Nouys, a site long regarded for producing Vouvray of finesse, freshness and precision. Domaine Pichot traces its roots in the region back to 1739, with generations of the family cultivating Chenin Blanc across Vouvray’s limestone-rich soils. The Coteau de la Biche cuvée is vinified primarily in stainless steel, with a small portion matured in older large-format barrels to add subtle texture without masking varietal clarity. The 2024 vintage is notably small in yield, producing wines of heightened aromatic purity and focused structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass the wine is bright, energetic and finely detailed, balancing orchard fruit richness with chalky minerality and lifted acidity. Aromas of pear, quince and citrus unfold alongside delicate floral and spice nuances that are characteristic of top-quality dry Vouvray. The palate carries excellent tension, combining concentration with freshness and a subtle saline edge that reflects the limestone soils of the appellation. Fine texture and precise acidity give the wine both immediate appeal and the ability to evolve gracefully with short to medium-term cellaring. This is a poised and versatile Chenin Blanc that pairs beautifully with seafood, poultry, creamy cheeses and refined vegetable dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Fresh and mineral-driven\u003cbr\u003eAromas of pear, green apple, quince and lemon zest with hints of white flowers, honey and chalky minerality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Focused and textured\u003cbr\u003eBright and finely structured, showing orchard fruit flavours layered with citrus, subtle spice and vibrant acidity balanced by a gentle savoury texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Crisp and persistent\u003cbr\u003eA long, refreshing finish with lingering citrus freshness, soft spice and a distinctive chalky mineral edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e“A charming, welcoming, very suave 2020 Vouvray Sec Coteau de la Biche with no edges. This expands in the mouth; there's good concentration and fine tannic structure that provides a gentle chalky finish. Very satisfying and succulent with a lovely smoky note at the end. The 7g\/L of residual sugar keeps things juicy and succulent rather than adding overt sweetness.”\u003c\/em\u003e — Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, 90 points, March 2021\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStyle – White Wine\u003cbr\u003eVarietal – Chenin Blanc\u003cbr\u003eCountry – France\u003cbr\u003eRegion – Loire Valley, Vouvray\u003cbr\u003eVintage – 2024\u003cbr\u003eBottle Size – 750ml\u003cbr\u003eABV – 12%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Pichot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43800061313111,"sku":"DPICH-BICH-24","price":34.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/Domaine_Pichot_Coteau_de_la_Biche_Vouvray_Sec_2024_750ml.webp?v=1780642269","url":"https:\/\/kentstreetcellars.com.au\/products\/domaine-pichot-coteau-de-la-biche-vouvray-sec-2024","provider":"Kent Street Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
