Camplices de Loire Clair de Lune Montlouis sur Loire

From the limestone-rich slopes of Montlouis-sur-Loire, Clair de Lune by Complices de Loire is a beautifully poised expression of Chenin Blanc, textured, mineral, and quietly luminous, just as the name suggests.

Opening with aromas of ripe pear, quince, white peach, and citrus blossom, the wine gradually reveals deeper notes of honeycomb, wet stone, and chamomile. On the palate, it balances generous orchard fruit with Chenin’s signature tension: bright acidity and chalky minerality cut through the texture, giving the wine remarkable freshness and precision.

There’s a subtle waxy richness here that adds depth without heaviness, alongside a lightly savoury edge that makes the wine especially compelling at the table. The finish is long, saline, and delicately floral, carrying that classic Loire combination of energy and elegance.

A versatile and characterful white that pairs beautifully with goat’s cheese, roast chicken, shellfish, or dishes with creamy sauces and fresh herbs. Sophisticated yet effortlessly drinkable, this is Loire Chenin with both charm and serious pedigree.
