Tasting Notes

This 2019 Chamboureau is a compelling showcase of dry Chenin Blanc from the Loire. Intensely mineral and concentrated, yet beautifully balanced. On the nose it unfurls with aromas of green apple, quince, honeysuckle and wet stone, evolving with aeration to hints of citrus blossom and floral honey. The palate is juicy and textural, combining racy acidity with ripe orchard‑fruit richness, flint‑driven minerality and a salt‑tinged, wet‑stone finish that lingers long.

100% Chenin Blanc from organic old vines around the historic Château de Chamboureau. Savennières’ signature mineral energy meets generous orchard‑fruit richness: expect aromas of green apple, quince and honeysuckle, a concentrated yet elegant palate of pear and exotic fruit, vibrant acidity, and a long, saline, wet‑stone finish.

Domaine FL | Organic Chenin Blanc from Savennières, Loire Valley

Domaine FL, named after owner Philippe Fournier Longchamps, is a family-owned estate in the Loire Valley, with winemaking now led by his son Julien. The family acquired Domaine Jo Pithon and Château de Chamboureau in 2006 and 2007, bringing the estates together in a new winery in Rochefort-sur-Loire in 2011. Today, the estate farms over 30 hectares of vines, predominantly Chenin Blanc, alongside Cabernet Franc. Its vineyards span diverse schist, rhyolite and clay soils across the Loire, including the renowned Savennières Roche aux Moines and Quart de Chaume — two of the Loire Valley's most celebrated appellations for Chenin Blanc. Certified organic since 2009, Domaine FL also farms selected parcels biodynamically, producing expressive organic Chenin Blanc wines across six Loire appellations. Their commitment to minimal intervention in both vineyard and winery allows the unique terroirs of the Loire Valley to speak clearly in every bottle. From the mineral intensity of their Savennières to the honeyed complexity of their Quart de Chaume, Domaine FL's wines are a benchmark for what organic Chenin Blanc from the Loire Valley can achieve.
