WINE DESCRIPTION

The vineyard is located on a south-facing slope with clay and limestone soils, which impart a unique minerality to the wine. The grapes are hand-harvested and fermented with natural yeasts, resulting in a wine that is both complex and expressive. The style of the wine is dry and crisp, with notes of citrus, green apple, and a hint of honey. This wine is a perfect example of the exceptional quality and craftsmanship that can be found in the wines of the Loire Valley.
