The wine
Les Epinays is a single parcel cuvée produced from young Chenin vines. It is vinified with no added sulphites and matured is large barrels for 18 months. It gives off aromas of pear, apricot and grapefruit. There is a fruitiness also on the palate, lifted by a lovely minerality and freshness. The wine can be enjoyed with fish, seafood, white meats or certain cheeses.
Domaine Grange Tiphaine is a 15-hectare family domain split between Montlouis-sur-Loire, Touraine and Touraine-Ambroise. The story of the domain goes back to the 19th century, when the Delecheneau family grew a variety of crops on the land. The domain was handed down from generation to generation, until Coralie and Damien Delecheneau’s arrival in 2002. They had met in Bordeaux. Damien manages the vine and the cellar, while Coralie takes care of admin and sales. The domain obtained organic certification in 2007 and biodynamic in 2014. The domain owns excellent vineyards of old vines, of which some are 100 years old. The work in the cellar is precise, and élevages are carried out in concrete vats and old casks. Wines from La Grange Tiphaine have beautiful purity and elegance. A rising star of the Loire.
