Chenin Blanc is a white wine grape variety from the Loire Valley in France. It is used to make sparkling (champagne style) wines, as well as dry, semi-sweet and sweet wines. The most notable wine made from CB in the Loire is Vouvray. Unlike some whites it is especially suitable for aging. The variety is used in South Africa and Australia. In these latter countries it was formerly used as a high volume, low value wine. Unfortunately Chenin blanc has a poor reputation because of these practices. In Australia more wineries are now taking the variety seriously and quite a few very good wines are bening made. www.vinodiversity.com/chenin-blanc.html has more information and a list of Australian wineries using the variety.
