Presentation
Location
In the heart of the Saumur Champigny appellation, the vines are located in Saint-Cyr-en-Bourg and have been managed organically for several years.
Terroir
The terroir is clay and limestone.
In the vineyard
Careful work in the vineyard throughout the year and precise monitoring of ripeness allows the Cabernet franc grape variety to be sublimated and gives this wine its full character. Thanks to organic farming, water and air resources, the environment and the quality of the soil are preserved and biodiversity is maintained.

Ageing
