Exceptional Chenin, crafted from vines over 100 years old in the rich terroir of Dissay-sous-Courcillon, showcases the unique character of the region’s flint clay and limestone soils at 100 meters above sea level. The vineyards are carefully tended, and grapes are hand-harvested at full maturity, with meticulous sorting. The wine is vinified naturally, without additives or interventions, preserving the purity of the fruit, the vintage, and the terroir. Spontaneous fermentation, driven by native yeasts, takes place with the juice and wine gently handled by gravity.
Aged for 36 months on lees in barrels within the cool, ancient tuffeau-stone cellars, this wine retains a rich texture and depth, with a touch of residual sugar balancing its natural acidity. The wine unfolds with layers of honeyed fruit, citrus zest, and a subtle nutty richness, supported by a vibrant minerality. Its complexity, richness, and slight sweetness make it a profound and captivating expression of its origin.
