Vouvray De Chanceny Brut Excellence Vintage

PRESENTATION

The Vouvray appellation exclusively uses the Chenin Blanc grape variety for its wines. Our Vouvray De Chanceny vintages are the product of meticulous hand-harvesting, gentle vinification, and careful aging in our tufa galleries. The work of our winemakers allows us to select the best grapes from the appellation to create unique blends for our vintages. The Vouvray Brut Excellence De Chanceny vintage is an iconic wine in our range. Its complex and balanced profile will enhance any tasting experience.

SITUATION

The Vouvray appellation covers 2,250 hectares spread across eight communes on the right bank of the Loire, on the plateaus and hillsides overlooking the river. The plots for our cuvée are located around the communes of Rochecorbon and Vouvray.

TERROIR

The grapes for the Vouvray Brut Excellence De Chanceny cuvée come from a selection of clay-limestone and tuffeau soils, a soft, white stone emblematic of the region and ideal for growing vines. The local, temperate climate gives our cuvée a gentle ripeness, sweetness, and acidity.

Winemaking

The harvest is carried out by hand with delicacy. Gentle pressing and fermentation at a cool temperature (18°C) allow for good preservation of the aromas. A second fermentation in the bottle according to the Traditional Method gives it finesse and elegance.

BREEDING

The 24 months of aging on slats before disgorging provide an incomparable finesse of bubbles.
