ABOUT THIS WINE

Sourced from the historic "Rouères" parcel in the Quarts de Chaume Grand Cru appellation, this wine is produced only in exceptional vintages from botrytized Chenin Blanc. The vineyard’s southeast-facing slopes and puddingstone soils create ideal conditions for noble rot, concentrating sugars and flavors while preserving freshness.
