WHAT THE WINEMAKERS ARE SAYING
“The vines are planted at the top of the hill at a place called ‘En Chagnon’ in the town of Montigny-les-Arsures. These are backed by a limestone ledge composed mainly of greasy gravel and revealing gray marls of the underlying Lias. The dress is beautiful with golden reflections. Vanilla aromas and light lemon notes give way to a more generous nose. A full and mineral mouth with a nice tension, a pleasant length.”
