Note: RVF 2009 Vintage Special: Wine ranked among the top 5 discoveries of the vintage!
For the past 10 years, working alongside Thierry Germain as vineyard manager, Michel Chevré has demonstrated his skill as a winemaker with his 2009 Les Ecotards cuvée, produced from a plot of old vines on clay-limestone soil acquired in 2007. He has successfully combined concentration, freshness, and richness with fruity and floral aromas... A cuvée worth discovering that brilliantly reinterprets the great white Saumur wines!
