Taste profile

Type

White Wine

On the palate

Fruity and saline the colour is pale, crystalline yellow which in time will change to gold. The nose expresses lovely white flesh fruit whilst the palate has the subtle citrus fruit flavour of pomelo.

The estate operates eighteen hectares: sixteen are planted with Cabernet Franc on remarkable clay-limestone soils such as the "Dares" or the "Clos" on the main street. Two are planted with Chenin on limestone soils. The vines are naturally grassed every other row to avoid too much vigor, the other is worked to make the roots of the vine plunge deep into the soil. Vinification takes place in thermo-regulated vats. The aging is done in micro-oxygenation for the spring cuvées and in barrels for the most robust Saumur Champigny. The Saumur Blancs are aged on lees in barrels.
