A slightly rounder version but still, in classic Vigneau Chevreau style, driven by a marked minerality and delightfully refreshing acidity. Notes of pear, flint and honeyblossom finish with a long, dry palate.
The Domaine, located in the heart of the Vouvray appellation, has grown with five generations, thus steadily expanding from 5 to 33 hectares. The Vigneau-Chevreau family has honored this tradition with the foresight to expand, modernize, and plan for future generations. The Vigneau-Chevreau’s were granted a 50-year lease to replant and farm the historical vineyard of Marmoutier Abbey, the cradle of Vouvray appellation wines. The 33 acres are located in 4 out of the 8 villages in the appellation. In 1995 the Domaine converted to very strict Biodynamic/Organic agriculture. They are one of two such producers in all of Vouvray. The aging of their wines takes place in their deep limestone cave.
This wine ferments two months in barrels, and then it matures in the tank with its fine lees until the spring. The wine develops a good balance between acidity and a light residual sugar, which gives a natural fresh flavor.
