Négociant Pierre Chainier's "Topette" ("see you later" in the local dialect) line of wines is a project in which he pays premium prices to a handful of growers and encourages their efforts in sustainable viticulture. The 2023 Chenin Blanc grabbed our attention with its clean and correct aromas of wildflowers, acacia and barely ripe melon. It has excellent acidity and concentration, finishing dry and surprisingly complex. It's been years since an under-$20 Chenin wowed us, and this is that wine! Sustainable viticulture.
