Montlouis Sur Loire Les Hauts de Husseau, Jacky et J.P. Blot 2015 | Magnum

Officially the longest named wine we have! Crazy character numbers, great effort...There aren’t many winemakers that are just as talented with red and white grapes. Jacky Blot is, however, one such producer, producing some of the Loire’s most intense, balanced and delicious wines. Some of the vines here are over 100 years old, and in 2019 they dug deep. The fruit is perfectly peachy, with a cool and silken texture on the palate that is supported by the supremely well-integrated oak. It is so fresh and vibrant, with a complex evolution ahead of it. Stunning and brimming with vibrancy and complexity in spades.

"Jacky Blot is the genius of Montlouis who demonstrated how beautiful its Chenin Blanc could be as a dry, oaked wine. This is stunning wine. Really nervy and exciting with apple skins and beeswax and so much flavour packed in here but also with racy acidity. Reverberates on the palate. Just perfect! And underpriced." - Jancis Robinson
