Chenin Blanc from the tuffeau slopes of the Loire — the still whites of Vouvray on WineFortune
Vouvray is a white-wine sub-region of the Loire in France, lying on the north bank of the river around the town of the same name. WineFortune currently tracks a single wine here, from one producer, Huet — a still white made under the AOP designation.
Vouvray is built on one grape: Chenin Blanc. Grown on tuffeau limestone and clay over chalk, it yields wines that run from bone-dry sec through demi-sec to sweet moelleux, alongside a traditional-method sparkling tradition. The wine tracked on WineFortune is still and white, and Vouvray's standing rests on the grape's marked freshness and its capacity to age.
There is not yet a WineFortune index median for Vouvray. The index is built from WineFortune's own trades and listings over a rolling window of 90 days, quoted per 75 cl bottle, and no figure is currently observed for this sub-region.
