Note: Guide Hachette 2** (Remarkable Wine)
“As for the 2010 Chaume, made from old Chenin grapes (seventy years old), it bears witness to the secret magic of the beige schist soils. A delicious and fresh nectar, which also receives two stars. ” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2013). A Chaume that initially reveals floral aromas (rosemary, basil) before unfolding into a bouquet of exotic fruits and mango... Distinctive and subtle!
