100% Chenin, from 10-year-old vines, facing South and planted on a superb terroir of sandy clay and numerous flint stones. The vines are certified organic by ECOCERT and biodynamic by BIODYVIN. The grapes were harvested by hand on the 8th and 11th of September 2020. Vinification: a delicate, direct pressing of the grapes, long fermentation with indigenous yeasts, 10 months of aging in casks then 12 months in wooden vats, amphorae and egg-shaped concrete vats.

Damien Délécheneau
Damien and Coralie Délécheneau met as classmates in Bordeaux, while both studying for their oenology diplomas, and haven’t left each other since. After each separately gaining experience (in the Beaujolais trade body, and in California for Madame, and training in Irancy, in Chablis at Domaine Laroche, in Saint Estèphe, and in Napa Valley for Monsieur) they finally returned to Amboise in 2002...
