"This has to be one of the best value "serious" white wine just nowChâteau de Fesles Anjou Chenin Sec, 2019 is a great antidote to Sauvignon Blanc fatigue and showcases the Loire's other (in my view, more interesting) grape, chenin blanc. It's honeyed but dry with rapier-like acidity and a touch of oak, just a seasoning rather a dominant flavour. Raymond Blake, of Burgundy fame, tells me that it ages brilliantly but to be honest, mine has never lasted long enough to tell. I bet he's right, though."
Tom Doorley, The Sunday Times, 18th of February 2024.
