Montlouis Wine - Buy Wine from the Montlouis Region of France

Despite being only two miles away (as the crow flies across the Loire) from Vouvray, the appellation of Montlouis (formed in 1938) which uses the same Chenin Blanc grape to produce the same gamut of white wines styles – sparkling, still, dry, medium and sweet - is less heralded. The south bank, sandier soils of Montlouis produce wines that are not quite as full-bodied as those of its better known sibling, but they remain excellent value nonetheless.
