The Pinon domaine has been making some of the finest Chenin Blanc from Vouvray since 1786. François Pinon took over the family domaine in 1987, converting the estate to certified organic viticulture in 2007. He unfortunately passes earlier this year, and his son Julien, who had been working along side his father for several years, has taken the reins, continuing his father focus on farming and age worthy winemaking.

The Vouvray Sec comes from a small planting of Chenin Blanc on clay soils (opposed to the domains dominate silex soils) as these vines produce wines that lend themselves to being fermented totally. The grapes come from vines that are over 40 years old, which are hand harvested, gently whole cluster pressed and gravity fed into  stainless steel tanks where the juice goes through a 3 month long native yeast fermentation. Full-bodied, bright and absolutely delicious, the nose is vibrant and alive with white flowers, almond and wild flower honey. The dense orchard and stone fruit packed palate is complex, with salted almond, anise and ripe yellow apple.

Terms & Conditions

You must be 21 years or older to purchase and receive products from Vanderbilt Wine Merchants. If you request shipping you authorize Vanderbilt Wine Merchants to engage a common carrier to deliver your order. All shipments require an adult signature at the time of delivery. Therefore, either you or an authorized adult must be present at the time of delivery with proof of identification. 
If you wish to ship to a location outside of New York State, you assume all responsibility for shipment. We will notify you before processing your order if we are unable to ship wine to the state you request. For the protection of your wines, we will not ship during warmer months without your express request. All orders are packed immediately upon purchase but we may wait for optimal conditions to send. Since we cannot control the temperature of any common carrier, we do our best to send shipments out at the beginning of each week. We will always confirm any delays in shipment, and the choice is ultimately up to you.
Some of our wine is sold "Pre-Arrival." All "Pre-Arrival" items will be indicated as such on our website and include the estimated date of arrival. We will contact you once the wine has arrived and confirm any shipment or delivery requests prior to sending. 

We are here to help you with your order, so don't hesitate to text us at (718) 398-1800 or email us at orders@vanderbilt.wine with any questions!

From time to time we purchase private collections and offer these wines to you at competitive and, we think, very attractive pricing.  We only purchase cellars of top provenance bottles that have been stored in ideal conditions, and we only work with trusted acquaintances and collectors.  If the wine you are considering does not display certain information, or if you would like certain images of the bottles please reach out using the form below.
