- Immediately seductive with its aromas of almond, Asian pear and spice, this voluptuous Montlouis combines richenss with a slinky, high-toned delicacy. For all its exuberant ripeness, it finishes intensely chalky, underneath scents of vanilla and clear honey. It's terrific now, but will only get better with time. -Wines & Spirits Les Tuffeaux is usually a vin tendre made with grapes from all of Chidaine's vineyards and selected by ripeness level. It can be round and aromatic, or rich and powerful, according to the style of the vintage.
