There is no doubt that the local sand and flint terroir has a role to play in forming this wine's aromatic and flavour profile. This, combined with élevage in tuns and stainless steel tanks, plays its part in producing a sober, powerful, lively wine. We recommend laying this wine down in your cellar for a number of years, allowing it to gain extra complexity.

Menetou-Salon Le Carroir Henry Pellé (Domaine) serve at a temperature of 12°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Saumon en papillote, Plateau de fruits de mer, Champignons farcis.
