2*Coup de Coeur

Hachette

"This wine immediately captivates with its powerful nose, which combines exotic fruits (pineapple, mango, lychee) with apricot and grapefruit. These aromas unfold with persistence on the palate, which is smooth on the attack and fresh on the finish. A remarkable balance." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2016)

About the wine:

This wine immediately captivates with its powerful nose, which combines exotic fruits (pineapple, mango, lychee) with apricot and grapefruit. These aromas unfold with persistence on the palate, which is smooth on the attack and fresh on the finish. A remarkable balance.

About the estate:

Located at the westernmost edge of the Nantes wine region, Sainte-Pazanne is a town primarily focused on agriculture. One wine-growing enclave remains: that of cousins Emmanuel and Laurent Guitteny, who have been managing a 30-hectare vineyard since 2000.
