Intensity
A burst of freshness and minerality make this Chenin Blanc the perfect companion for an aperitif with friends.
More infoThese Chenin Blanc vines thrive in their limestone soils thanks to a healthy, sustainable viticulture system that respects organic farming practices. Here, neither weedkillers nor chemical fertilisers come into play. The grapes are harvested entirely by hand at optimum ripeness, in order to protect the fruit. In the winery, the same ethos applies. Vinification involves as few additives as possible to allow the fruit to express all its aromas naturally. The winemaker lovingly works his white wines in tuns and barrels to allow them to reveal the aromas of the grape variety and achieve a unique balance.
The slightly golden colour reveals a bouquet of subtle citrus aromas, with notes of white fruit and hazelnuts. In the mouth, a fine balance is struck between freshness and acidity, leading to a saline, flavoursome finish. This wine will be best enjoyed in its youth.
Avec un élevage dans 7% de barrique neuve et le reste en vieille barrique, ce vin présente une belle tension avec un boisé intégré et une grande salinité.
