Benoit and Emmanuelle Chauveau are our go to growers for this ever popular classic white wine. The grapes are from a small plot of 1.5 hectares producing only 8000 bottles. The couple farm with utmost respect for the environment, climate and soil – no chemicals are used with the focus on maintaining the quality of the vineyard for future generations. The soil is aerated and only the very best grapes are selected for vinification. Traditional production methods are used including ageing on the lees and a second natural fermentation. No oak. Very light filtration to preserve all the flavour and freshness of the fruit.
