what grape is chenin blanc
Cugnette redirects here. For another French wine grape known as Cugnette, see JacquÃ¨re. Chenin blanc (known also as Pineau de la Loire among other names) is a white wine grape variety from the Loire valley of France. Its high acidity means it can be used to make everything from sparkling wines to well-balanced dessert wines, although it can produce very bland, neutral wines if the vine's natural vigor is not controlled.
