"This vineyard, whose name is no coincidence, gives the grape variety its characteristic herbaceous flavors!"

“An intense nose of white flowers, fresh butter, and acacia honey combines with a supple, fresh palate that has good body and a crisp finish to create a harmonious white wine.” (Le Guide Hachette 2024). A great wine from a flagship appellation. Buy by the case!

About the wine:

An intense aroma of white flowers, fresh butter, and acacia honey combines with a supple, fresh palate that has good body and a crisp finish to create a harmonious white wine.

About the estate:

The Domaine de la Croix Senaillet was founded in 1969 by Maurice Martin, who gradually shifted from mixed farming to viticulture. In 1990, his son Richard took over the family estate, and was joined by his brother Stéphane in 1992. The property, which originally covered 6.5 hectares, has expanded to 25 hectares today, spread across 52 plots that have been certified organic since 2010. Drawing on their experience, in 2015 the brothers acquired the Domaine de Mont Épin in Clessé (13 hectares).
