Chidaine is the appellation’s leading grower, and Les Choisilles is drawn mainly from Les Epinais, La Taille aux Loups and Clos Renard, where vines range from thirty to ninety years old. From 2021 Pierre Chidaine has taken the oldest vines in Les Epinais, now over sixty years, to make a separate lieu-dit bottling. The style here is concentrated and focused, a dry Chenin with a touch more extract than the Clos du Breuil, and one that often needs a few years to open out. The flinty smokiness the Choisilles rocks give is a consistent marker, set against creamy stone fruit and mandarin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorth three to five years in bottle and capable of a decade.
