Moelleux – Domaine Plou & Fils

The Moelleux Chenin Plou et Fils 2023 is a sweet white wine made from late-harvested Chenin: soft, round and ample, with passion fruit, honey and acacia aromas.

Domaine Plou et Fils

At Chargé, on the banks of the Loire, the Plou family has grown vines since 1508: twenty-three generations on an estate that now has 102 hectares of vineyards and troglodyte cellars. Plou et Fils combines ancestral methods with modern techniques to bring out the character of its grape varieties and terroirs. The estate also offers guided tours of its troglodyte cellars, with tastings.

The wine: Moelleux Chenin Plou et Fils, late-harvest Chenin

Chenin, the emblematic grape of the estate’s slopes, is picked later, when the berries turn golden: they concentrate more sugar and aroma. The result is a sweeter, rounder, more ample wine with a more oily texture. It comes in a 75 cl bottle.

Tasting notes

The colour is gold with an oily appearance. The aromas bring passion fruit, honey and acacia. The palate is ample and long: sweetness adds length and breadth, and a note of acidity perfects the balance.

Food pairing, serving and ageing

Enjoy it with an aperitif dinner, modern sweet-and-savoury cooking or mountain cheeses; for dessert, with a tarte Tatin or an almond cake. Serve between 8 and 10°C. It keeps for 10 to 15 years.
