Saumur Brézé Domaine Guiberteau 2009

The wine

Saumur Brézé is a wine full of grace and delicacy. The very clear nose delivers fruity aromas (stone fruit like Mirabelle plum, citrus fruit) and floral notes. The fruity notes are found on the palate, accompanied by discrete touches of vanilla, a testament to the mastery of the ageing. Fine acidity abounds.

About the Producer Guiberteau

Romain Guiberteau has been in charge of the 14.5 hectare family domain in the communes of Montreuil-Bellay, Brézé and Bizay since 1996. The vineyard has been certified organic since 2003 and is planted with Chenin and Cabernet Franc. Some of the vines are around 60 years old. The soil is tilled and left with grass cover. The only additives used are sulphur, copper and plant decoctions. A true leading light in the region, Romain Guiberteau, originally from Berry, makes wines reputed to be among the best in the Loire.
