Hoʻolaʻa ʻia ka Appellation d'Origine controlee (AOC) kokoke iā Chenin Blanc wale nō, ʻae ʻia ka Arbois hua waina pohihihi a liʻiliʻi (akā ʻaʻole hoʻohana ʻia).
He moʻolelo lōʻihi ko Viticulture ma keia wahi a hiki i ka Middle Ages (a i ole mamua) i ka wa o ka
Hoʻokomo ʻia ka hale pule Katolika i nā māla waina ma nā hale mōneka kūloko. Ua ʻike ʻia ka hua waina ʻo Pineau de la Loire a ua puka mai paha ia ma ka ʻāina waina ʻo Anjou i ke kenekulia 9 a ua neʻe i Vouvray.
I nā kenekulia 16 a me 17, ua mālama nā mea kālepa Dutch i ke kanu ʻana i nā māla waina ma ia wahi e hoʻohana ʻia no ke kālepa waina me nā mākeke ma Lākana, Paris a me Rotterdam. Ua hui pū ʻia nā huawaina mai ka wahi ʻo Touraine i kahi hui nui i kapa ʻia ʻo Vouvray. Ua kūkulu ʻia nā hale waihona waina mai nā ana i hana ʻia mai ka ʻeli ʻana i nā pōhaku tuffeau (limestone) i hoʻohana ʻia e kūkulu i ka Chateaux o ke awāwa ʻo Loire. ʻO ke anuanu a paʻa mau o nā hale waihona he mea kūpono ia no ka holomua o nā waina ʻālohilohi i hana ʻia ma ka ʻōnaehana champenoise kuʻuna a lilo i mea kaulana i nā kenekulia 18 a me 19. Ua lilo ʻo Vouvray i AOC i ka makahiki 1936 a me ke kauhale o Vouvray me 8 mau kauhale kokoke (Chancay, Nouzilly, Vernou-sur-Brenne a me Rochecorbon).
Aia ka ʻāina ʻo Vouvray ma ka piko o kahi pāpū, i ʻoki ʻia e nā kahawai liʻiliʻi a me nā kahawai o ka Loire. Hāʻawi nā kahawai i nā kūlana aniau kūʻokoʻa e hāpai ana i ka hoʻomohala ʻana o ka haʻo Botrytis cinerea e kumu ai i ka pala maikaʻi i hoʻohana ʻia no ka hana ʻana i nā waina ʻono ʻono.
ʻO ke aniau ka hapa nui o ka continental me kekahi mana moana mai ka Moana ʻAkelanika ʻoiai aia ma mua o 100 mau mile i ke komohana. Pili nā waina i ke aniau me ka nui o ka ho'ololi waina i kēlā me kēia makahiki ma muli o ke aniau. Hoʻololi nā makahiki anuanu i ka nui o ka hana ʻana i nā ʻano waina maloʻo me ka Vouvray ʻālohilohi. Paipai ʻia nā makahiki mahana mehana i ka hana ʻana i nā waina ʻono ʻono.
ʻO ka wahi ʻākau a me ka piʻi ʻana o ke anuanu ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hōʻiliʻili ʻana ma Vouvray kekahi o nā mea hope loa e hoʻopau ʻia ma Farani, e holo pinepine ana i Nowemapa. Loaʻa nā ʻano Vouvray mai ka maloʻo a i ka ʻono a me ka ʻālohilohi a kaulana no nā ʻala pua nani a me ka ʻono wiwo ʻole.
Loaʻa nā hue mai ka mauʻu liʻiliʻi (no nā waina ʻālohilohi) ma o ke kiko melemele a hiki i ke gula hohonu (no ka Moellex momona kahiko). Ma keʻano laulā, ka palena ʻala ma ka ʻaoʻao māmā o ka ikaika a hoʻouna i nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo o ka pea, honeysuckle, quince a me ka ʻāpala ('ōmaʻomaʻo / melemele) i ka ihu. Loaʻa paha nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo o ka ʻala a me ka beeswax (e hōʻike ana i ka hele ʻana o ka popopo hanohano… e noʻonoʻo iā Sauterne). ʻO nā meaʻono ma ka palate mai ka wīwī, maloʻo a me ka minerality i ka hua a me kaʻono (e pili ana i keʻano).
Hāʻawi ʻo Sec i kahi waina maloʻo (emi iho ma mua o 8 g/L o ke koena kō; ʻo ka ʻano maloʻo loa o Vouvray) a maʻamau ka wikiwiki a hāʻawi i ka mineral.
Ua ʻike ʻia nā māla waina ʻo Pinon ma waena o nā mea maikaʻi loa ma ka ʻāina ʻo Vouvray a nona ka ʻohana mai 1786. Ua hoʻomaka ʻo Francois Pinon i kāna ʻoihana ma ke ʻano he keiki psychologist, e lawe ana i ka waiwai mai kona makuakāne (1987). Ua manaʻo ʻia ʻo Pinon he mea hana waina koʻikoʻi a ʻo kāna mea nui e pili ana i ka viticulture organik a me ka liʻiliʻi o ka hana ʻana i ka waina. Ke alakaʻi ʻia nei ka waiwai e Julien Pinon.
Aia nā māla waina ma ka Vallee de Cousse kahi e uhi ai ka lepo a me ka lepo silica i ke kumu o ka limestone me ka ʻili (silex). Hoʻopili ʻo Pinon i kahi ʻōnaehana e pili ana i ka palau ʻana o ka māla waina, ka pale ʻana i nā mea kanu kemika a me nā pesticides a me ka ʻohi lima. Hana ʻia nā mea kanu hou a pau ma ke koho massale (he hua waina Farani e ulu ana no ke kanu hou ʻana i nā māla waina hou me nā ʻokiʻoki mai nā kumu waina kahiko mai ka waiwai like a i ʻole nā mea pili kokoke); ʻaʻole hoʻohana ʻia nā clones nursery. ʻO kāna mau kumu waina awelika 25 y/o. Ua hōʻoia ʻia ka ʻāina i ka organik ma 2011.
Hana ʻia ka fermentation waiʻona i loko o nā pahu lāʻau a ʻelemakule i ke kila kuhili ʻole a i ʻole nā pā (nā pahu nui, ʻaneʻi ʻelua paha ka nui o ka barrique Bordelaise) e loaʻa ai kahi kaulike ma waena o ka hua a me ka hoʻemi. Aia hoʻokahi lāʻau no ka wehe ʻana i nā lee kaumaha a noho ka waina ma kona mau lei maikaʻi a hiki i ka hoʻoheheʻe ʻana, e noho ana i 12 mau mahina ma hope o ka hōʻiliʻili ʻana e hoʻopau i ka waina. Hoʻopili mālie ʻo Pinon i kāna mau waina e hōʻoia i ko lākou kūpaʻa a me ka hiki ke ʻelemakule.
Koho ʻo Pinon i 0.6 ʻeka o nā wahi palahalaha, ʻoi aku ka pālolo-i mua no kāna hoʻoheheʻe ʻana i kekona. ʻO ka awelika o nā kumu waina he 40 mau makahiki. ʻOhi lima ʻia ka hua, ʻohi ʻia a paʻi pū ʻia. Kahe ka wai ma ka umekaumaha i loko o nā pahu no ka fermentation hū maoli i mau 2-3 mahina e kū maoli ana i loko o ka hale anuanu o Pinon i kālai ʻia i loko o ka puʻu tuffeau.

He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- Vouvray is a white wine derived from Chenin Blanc grapes cultivated along the banks of the Loire River in the Touraine district of France, east of the city of Tours, in the commune of Vouvray.
- The grape is also known as Pineau de la Loire and may have originated in the Anjou wine region in the 9th century and migrated to Vouvray.
- The cold, steady temperature of the cellars was ideal for the advancement of sparkling wines made on the tradition methode champenoise system and became popular in the 18th and 19th centuries.
