Tasting Notes

Aroma

Red fruit aromas.

Palate

Nice mineral structure.

Vinification

Alcoholic fermentation and ageing (1 year and a half) in stainless steel vats. Each year, the harvest – done by hand - require an experienced team of 40 pickers. Grape picker empty their buckets into 15 kg cases, grapes are then transported in small quantities and are quickly conveyed to the winery, where an arsenal of stainless steel equipment is ready for the last grape sorting operations. Each clos and each nature of terroir are vinified separately.

Cellaring Potential

Within the 5 years following the vintage.

Food Matching

The great classic of Chinon with rillettes, rillons, poultry or fresh goat's cheese.

Winemakers Comments

The Domaine has been working organically for several years and especially focusing on developing the biodiversity : hedges and trees plantations, a good fertilization management, development of the flora and the fauna in the vines… The vineyards reflect the rich diversity of the terroirs, from the gravelly terrace offering light and perfumed wines to the clay- calcareous slopes offering long keeping wines. Each plot produces small yields.

Region Notes

This cuvée is the result of a blend of different plots of land located on the left bank of the Vienne river, all with the same soil profile. The cuvée Les Petites Roches, with its predominantly clayey and moderately chalky slopes and plateaus, offers wines with red fruit aromas and a nice mineral structure, to be enjoyed within five years of the vintage.
