The 55-are Les Dares parcel lies in Varrains and was planted in 1963. The calcareous tuffeau bedrock shapes the site; for the traditional cuvée, the winery also mentions clay-limestone soils. The grapes are fermented with indigenous yeasts and macerated for ten days in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. The wine is matured in tank until bottling in spring. Stylistically, it shows red berries, a soft, rounded body, fresh acidity and melted tannins. Sources: domaine-sanzay.com, terroirs and saumur-champigny; tannico.ch.
