Description:
This excellent cooperative under the guidance of managing director Claude Guichet is now producing some of the most consistent quality and value wines from the Loire. Long contracts and bonuses for quality grapes have meant it is now in the member interests to invest time and effort in producing the best grapes for the production of wine. The grapes are sourced from the left bank of the Loire River, south-east of the city of Saumur, an area with soils rich in white limestone. The grapes are picked both manually and mechanically and then severely sorted. They are kept on their skins either in a horizontal rotary vinimatic, or in vertical vats with regular pumping over during fermentation. After a period of stabilisation and filtering, the wine is bottled young. Ruby red in colour, with a refined and elegant nose. The palate is soft and ripe with hints of green peppers. The finish is long and concentrated. (6 x 75 cl)
