Rooted in Parçay-Meslay, at the heart of the Vouvray appellation, Domaine Jean-Marc Gilet has cultivated a genuine passion for vines and wine for generations. On a mosaic of clay, limestone, and flint soils, Chenin Blanc reveals its full richness, producing wines that are elegant, vibrant, and full of character.
Troglodyte cellars, organic farming practices, and the traditional method for sparkling wines all reflect the estate’s commitment to harmonizing tradition, respect for nature, and innovation. The result is a portfolio of authentic, honest, and approachable wines.
More than just a winery, Domaine Jean-Marc Gilet embodies a deep family commitment, patient craftsmanship, and an enduring passion for viticultural excellence.
Appellation: Vouvray
Region: Loire Valley
Grape Variety: This wine is 100% Chenin Blanc.
Winemaking: Harvested at optimal ripeness, the wine is fermented mainly in stainless steel with 20% in oak, then aged 6 months on lees with bâtonnage for added texture and complexity.
Tasting Notes: Intense yellow color with slightly silvery reflections. The nose is expressive with dominant white fruit aromas such as vine peach, supported by notes of fresh almond and acacia flowers. The palate is tender and long, with citrus flavors and hints of toasted hazelnut.
Pairings: Beautifully with roasted asparagus with hollandaise, citrus-glazed poultry, scallops, or creamy seafood dishes, enhancing both freshness and richness.
RATINGS:
