Winemaker Notes:
"0.5 ha of Chenin Blanc planted in the 1960s, located in L’Ardillon, a single south/southwest facing parcel in the commune of Brézé (contextually speaking sits above La Charpenterie, Domaine du Collier’s most revered site). The topsoil (about 80cm deep) is a mix of clay and loam, above Turonian limestone.
Vinification: Sorted directly in vineyard, whole cluster pressing. No malo due to the very low pH (between 3.07 to 3.12) and the cold cellar environment (10 to 12°C). Aged on fine lees for 12 months in barrel (50% 225L barrels of one wine, 50% 225L barrels of 2-3 wines), then a further 6 months in stainless steel. SO2: varies from 15 to 25 mg/l free, and 25 to 60 mg/l total. Very low doses are added at pressing (2g/hl), after alcoholic fermentation to help prevent malo (1 g/hl), with a final adjustment at bottling. Unfined, light filtration."
Alcohol: 12.5%
