Chenin Blanc from one of Saumur’s finest estatesgrown on tuffeau and flint-clay soils in the hillside village of Souzay-Champigny. Jean-Pierre Chevallier farms five hectares organically, producing Loire Chenin Blanc that trades in tension and minerality rather than sweetness. Vinified on fine lees without malolactic fermentation to preserve razor-sharp freshness. Aged 67 months: 30% in 600-liter barrels, 70% in concrete tanks. If you love Chablis but want something different, this is your next obsession.
