100% Chenin Blanc from a west facing vineyard near the top of the hill in the village of Saint Cyr en Bourg (next to Brézé) from vines more than 20 yo. Fabien explains that higher up on the hill there is more limestone and less silt and clay so better for whites (like Brézé). Whole bunch pressed and fermented with natural yeast 80% in concrete vat and 20% in aged barrels before being blended and aged for 6 months on fine lees before bottling. Ripe orchard fruit aromatics with freshness and lift. Supple fresh and finely structured on the palate with medium body and bright acidity giving very good length.
