2023 Technical Specifications

Grape Varieties 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Region Touraine
Soil Clay and flint at chissay-en-touraine; clay and limestone at saint-julien-de-chédon
Fermentation Vessels Stainless-steel vats
Pressing Method Direct Pressing In A Pneumatic Press
Indigenous Yeast Yes
Production Details Biodynamically cultivated in two Cher Valley parcels, with natural grass cover between rows and soil worked beneath the rows; manually harvested, directly pressed pneumatically, cold settled, fermented at low temperature in stainless steel with native yeasts, underwent no malolactic fermentation, and matured on fine lees in stainless steel without stirring. The sheet labels the wine 2023 but says bottling occurred in February 2023; because that date is internally inconsistent with the harvest vintage, it is not proposed as a bottling_date fact.
Tasting Notes Ripe Sauvignon character; pineapple, mango and citrus; refreshing, fleshy yet soft, balanced and pure-fruited
