About this winery
We are happy to present our domain, worked in biodynamic for more than 25 years, located in the South of Touraine, at the doors of Poitou, on a pretty hill. The Domaine is part of the Touraine appellation but its geographical situation sets it apart.

Product notes
Very ripe grapes, light skin maceration, pneumatic pressing at low pressure, fermentation in vats and 10% in oak barrels for the oldest vine (86 years old) of the place called "Château London". Aged for a minimum of 10 to 12 months. Delicate nose with mineral notes. Scents of almond and ripe apple. Flavors of beeswax and crunchy fruits. Almost fatty texture that precedes a persistent finish.
Production notes
Very ripe grapes, light skin maceration, pneumatic pressing at low pressure, fermentation in vats and 10% in oak barrels for the oldest vineyard (86 years old) of the place called "Château London". Aged for a minimum of 10 to 12 months before bottling at the property by us. Production of this cuvée is around 3000 to 3500 cases.
Tasting notes
Wine with a rather intense straw yellow color. Delicate nose from which emanate mineral notes. The whole is completed by scents of almond and ripe apple. Enjoy this white wine with good acidity. Faithful to the scents perceived at the olfaction, it asserts itself by flavors of beeswax and crunchy fruits. It reveals an almost fatty texture that precedes a persistent finish.
