What grows together, goes together.
This tiny co-operative has 40 hectares of vineyards in total. The Sauvignon Blanc vines for this wine are located on the flint and clay soils of the Loire Valley, in the Valençay area. The flint in particular imparts the characteristic mineral quality on the wine, while patches of sandy and limestone topsoils over very stony and clay subsoils add richness and depth.
The Wine
Light lemon yellow in colour, with aromas of citrus, gooseberry and white peach on the nose. On the palate there is an attractive depth of flavour, with notes of lemon, green apple and white peach offset by a charming mineral tone throughout. A crisp acidity carries the wine to a refreshing and elegant finish.
