Chenin sculpted by limestone into a tense and quietly layered expression.

Mineral

Taut

Textured

Fresh

A precise and mineral-driven Chenin defined by tension and clarity.

Nose: Green apple, quince, and lemon zest interwoven with white blossom and crushed stone. Subtle honeyed tones appear with air.
Palate: Medium-bodied with vivid acidity carrying orchard fruit and citrus oil. A chalky mineral spine shapes the structure, while fine phenolic grip adds quiet texture and depth.
Finish: Long and linear, marked by saline lift and persistent citrus peel.
Serve: 9–11°C to emphasize focus and structural precision.

An articulate Bordeaux Chenin built on limestone tension and restrained breadth.

Chenin grown on the limestone plateau of Bordeaux, where astéries stone defines both structure and minerality.

Vines: 100% Chenin Blanc from organically farmed parcels.
Soils: Limestone (astéries) with clay components, contributing tension and textural grip.
Farming: Organic viticulture with manual harvest and careful bunch selection.
Cellar: Whole-cluster pressing, spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, élevage in neutral vessels to preserve purity and site transparency.
Additions: Minimal sulphur, no fining or filtration.
