Origin
Vin de France, Loire, France

The vines grow on crystalline orthogneiss and face south-east. The entire harvest is carried out by hand at around 20 hl/ha. The two varieties are vinified separately: the Chardonnay parcel macerates for around eight months, while the Folle-Blanche remains on the skins for about one month, in each case in amphorae. This is followed by around twelve months of ageing in amphorae and blending before bottling. Fermentation takes place spontaneously with indigenous yeasts. In the glass, the orange wine shows iodine and lemon notes, yellow fruit and citron; it is taut, fresh, dry, full-bodied and crystalline.
