Vintage Report

The 2015 vintage for white wines from the Loire Valley scored 91 points and is considered excellent. According to reviews, these wines are currently at their peak for drinking.

This nectar from Chenin Blanc is exceptionally refined, velvety smooth, rich, and concentrated with notes of honey, botrytis, and tropical fruit. Its velvety sweetness and beautiful freshness make it a wonderful aperitif; just one sip of this rich wine will set the taste buds on edge. Excellent as an aperitif and dessert wine, it also pairs surprisingly well with various appetizers and main courses: foie gras with apricot mousse, sea salt, butter, and toast; delicate fish in a spicy-sweet cream sauce, poultry terrine, lamb in a honey-thyme sauce, and salty blue cheeses.

The history of the Marc Bredif estate

Nectar Vouvray is produced by the Marc Bredif winery. The history of Domaine Marc Brédif dates back to 1893, when Monsieur Brédif founded the estate. The winery is located in the heart of Vouvray, in the Loire Valley region. Later, in 1980, Baron Patrick de Ladoucette took over the estate and continued cultivating vines for wine production. The Domaine Marc Brédif cellar is among the finest and largest in the appellation. Domaine Marc Brédif has a number of very rare wines, with vintages dating back to 1874. The vineyards are composed of clay-limestone, gravelly, or sandy soils.

The production of quality wine Nectar Vouvray

The Vouvray vineyard, located upstream from Tours in the northern Loire Valley, is planted on clay-siliceous or clay-limestone topsoils. Production here is divided between still (dry, semi-dry, or sweet, depending on the vintage and sunshine) and sparkling wines, produced using traditional methods of a second fermentation process before bottling. The soft wines, labeled "moelleux," are produced under favorable weather conditions (sunny autumns). Overripe grapes affected by noble rot are harvested through sorting. With age, these rich, smooth wines develop complex aromas similar to great fortified wines: ripe quince, acacia, almonds, and honey.
