Château Gaudrelle

Château Gaudrelle produces Chenin Blanc from Vouvray, the historic appellation in Touraine at the heart of the Loire Valley. The winery's portfolio centers on this single variety, which thrives in the region's cool continental climate and chalky soils. The Réserve Personnelle Vouvray represents the core expression—a dry white of mineral precision and aging potential. Ammonite Crémant de Loire Extra Brut channels the same Chenin Blanc into sparkling form, with the dosage-free approach emphasizing acidity and complexity. Vouvray Clos Le Vigneau, from a designated vineyard parcel, offers a more concentrated take on the terroir. Chenin Blanc in Vouvray ranges from bone-dry to lightly sweet depending on vintage conditions and winemaking choice; these wines are marked by high acidity, stone fruit, and honeyed aromatics that evolve over years in bottle. Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast, and Decanter have rated the winery's releases.
