Vignobles Lacheteau Vouvray Review

Vignobles Lacheteau Vouvray

The Vignobles Lacheteau Vouvray is one of the white wines that you don’t want to miss out on. If you’re looking for a sweet and light-bodied wine that’s under $10, then this could be the wine for you. 

Take note that its 2021 vintage has a better rate than any other year so keep an eye for this one when you’re in Trader Joe’s.

Vignobles Lacheteau Vouvray Review

Vignobles Lacheteau Vouvray

The Vignobles Lacheteau Vouvray is exquisitely sweet up front, but its acidity holds everything together.

It’s sweet for me but definitely a great choice for those who want to enjoy a solid sweet wine at a great price.

To lessen its syrupy taste and get its best qualities, it’s best to chill it before serving. Overall, it’s a bottle of good sipping wine and can be served during dinner if you plan to serve spicy dishes.

Look

It has a common external design and nothing really special about it. On the glass, the wine has a light straw color which you can expect from a glass of white wine.

Aroma

Once opened, you can already tell that this wine is a bit sweet. I can smell apples, pears, lemons, and even pineapple.

Taste

 The taste of this wine is similar to the flavors on the nose. There are flavors of pear, apple, melon, and peach. There are hints of honey tones that create its sweetness and the acidity of the lemon peel balances out everything.

Finish

The Vignobles Lacheteau Vouvray has a long and silky mouthfeel finish. The baked apple notes are long-lasting which creates its sweetness.
