Tasting notes
"Le Petit Chenin is a new wine from the estate made from young vines from some of the castle's best south-facing fields. The subsoil here is mostly clay and contributes to the wine's fullness. All grapes are hand harvested and vinified in 500L oak barrels. Pale gold with hints of green, floral, acacia aromas followed by zesty acidity, full weight, rich, a little honey, white peach and a textured mount-feel, acidity and ripe fruit elegantly balanced with a mineral finish. Fresh with lively fruit and a gentle influence of oak. This combines lovely honeyed richness with zesty and fresh acidity." Philippe Germain
