Vouvray is the most important designation in Touraine for white wines, and the largest for the Chenin grape.
The cellars dug into the tuffeau rock offer a coolness that once allowed the second fermentation to start in bottles.
They remain today a curiosity and an exceptional storage place.
The nose is tasty, floral, with sweet scents of rose, hawthorn, pear and quince. There is a hint of chalk and a lot of freshness. On the palate, a pretty tension comes to support this tenderly perfumed juice. Beautiful aromatic persistence.

Beautifully golden colored wine. The nose is rich and complex. Notes of fruit pasta envelop delicious aromas of candied citrus and honey. In the mouth, the attack is fresh, astonishing by its liveliness and the intensity of its perfumes.
The finish is long, lemony, bringing a nice tension to the finish. It's beautiful, perfumed, and incredibly fresh!
The color is pale yellow, the nose expressive and very aromatic. The scents of passion fruit mingle with those of citrus, quince and mango. In the mouth, the attack is tasty and tense by a nice acidity. The finish is long and persistent. Very well-balanced wine, only pleasure!
