Château Gaudrelle
Château Gaudrelle is a Vouvray wine producer whose visitor contact is in Rochecorbon, beside the Loire near Tours. The estate’s technical and wine information identifies Chenin Blanc and soils that include clay-limestone and clay-siliceous ground. Its range includes different expressions of Vouvray, and its account of older vintages emphasises the capacity of Chenin to develop with age. The historic château bearing the Gaudrelle name is at Vouvray; it should not be confused with the producer’s current visitor reception in Rochecorbon. The image of that historic building is therefore labelled with its location. A wine visit should be arranged with the producer using the current official contact details.
