Description
Beautiful, cloudy blend of Mauzac and Colombard, originating from the Côtes de Tarn. Energetic, with a kick, full of citrus fruit and very enjoyable. The modern elaboration of the terroir, so to speak.
Showing lots of citrus, honey, pistachio and white flowers in a straw yellow jacket. Well priced, so that many of them will be on the table
The family estate Domaine Grosbois is located in the wine region of Chinon, in the heart of the Loire Valley. The wine cellar is an old 15th century farmhouse converted into a winery. The estate itself covers a total of 12 hectares on the high slopes of Panzoult in Chinon. Owner Nicolas has been working organically for many years and is now 100% biodynamic (DEMETER certified). The vines are 40 years old and have a yield of 35 hectoliters per hectare.
At the same time, Nicolas often sources grapes from winegrower friends, who are located on completely different terroirs, which results in interesting blends, such as here, with grapes from Sud-Ouest.
Together with his childhood friend Philippe Mesnier, they also started Domaine des Hauts Baigneux and the 'Les Tetes' wines in Azay-le-Rideau, Loire.
