€39.50

750ml Bottle

Les Saules de Montbenault comes from an 0.80 hectares plot of chenin blanc, grown on rhyolite (volcanic rock), in Faye d'Anjou. Vine density in this vineyard is key, with only 5,000 vines per hectare, resulting in roughly 20 hectoliters per hectare. After an 8-10 hour long press cycle, the must is racked to 400L neutral barrels where the wine is aged sur lie.
