Cheninsolite 2021

Unique style Chenin Blanc aged in oak

The Domaine Cady Cheninsolite 2021 is a white wine made from 100% Chenin Blanc, hand-harvested in October when the grapes are fully ripe and golden, ensuring excellent quality. Fermentation and vinification occur in oak barrels, followed by 11 months aging on fine lees, giving the wine complexity and structure.

Intense and fresh aromas with honeyed and spicy notes

The wine shows a bright golden color. The nose is complex, fresh, and enveloping, with elegant honeyed, fruity and lightly spicy notes that develop over time. Oak aging enhances the Chenin character, adding depth and finesse.

Creamy, structured palate balanced by good acidity

On the palate it offers a creamy, rounded texture, with intense aromas of ripe fruit and typical Chenin flavors. The good acidity keeps the sip fresh and enjoyable, with a long, slightly spicy finish, ideal for lovers of rich and sophisticated whites.

Ideal with structured dishes and aged cheeses

Domaine Cady Cheninsolite 2021 pairs excellently with fish in sauce, elaborate white meats, aged cheeses, and spiced dishes. Serve at 12–14 °C to fully express its character.

Domaine Cady

Natural rebirth in the heart of Anjou

Domaine Cady is a historic winery based in Saint-Aubin-de-Luigné, in the Loire Valley, and today it stands as one of the most authentic and natural voices in the Anjou region. The Cady family has cultivated vines for generations, deeply connected to the land. Main grape varieties include Chenin Blanc, Cabernet Franc, Grolleau, and Gamay, grown on schist and limestone soils that lend freshness and minerality.

The 2021 fire and the move to Rochefort-sur-Loire

In 2021, a devastating fire destroyed the old winery. Refusing to give up, the family responded with strength. In 2022, construction began on a new cellar in Clos du Moulin de Sainte Catherine, located in Rochefort-sur-Loire, where their guesthouse is also located. The project was designed to offer visitors an immersive wine experience, surrounded by vineyards and Loire charm.

Natural wines, local grapes, and spontaneous fermentations

The winemaking philosophy is 100% natural: no synthetic chemicals, hand-harvested grapes, and spontaneous fermentations with native yeasts. Ageing is done in neutral wood, steel or concrete tanks, preserving the purity of the fruit. Wines are unfiltered or lightly clarified, always vibrant and precise. The result is a clean, expressive lineup that speaks clearly of its origin.

Chenin Blanc and more: Anjou elegance in a bottle

Chenin Blanc is the flagship grape of Domaine Cady, vinified in dry, moelleux, and sparkling styles. Red and rosé wines from Cabernet Franc, Grolleau, Gamay, and Pineau d’Aunis complete the picture, all made to be fresh, juicy, and easy to drink. Every wine is a faithful portrait of its vineyard and the hands that crafted it.
