The Fort family, friends and experienced growers in Limoux, offered him part of their harvest so he could still make wine, and the arrangement has continued since. Limoux sits in the foothills of the Pyrenees and is better known for sparkling wine, but its altitude and cooler nights suit Chenin well. Chidaine works the fruit in the spirit of his Montlouis wines, aiming for clarity and cut rather than weight, and the wine is bottled as Vin de France because the variety falls outside the local appellation rules. The result is a crystalline, lip-smacking white that carries the maker's Loire sensibility a long way south.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrink now and over the next three or four years. Serve at 10-12°C with roast pork, mild curry or a plate of charcuterie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
