Guide Hachette des vins

Rated estate (2027 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

Vincent Carême upholds his fine reputation with this cuvée made from old (60-year-old) Chenin vines located on the lower slopes of Vouvray. Smoky, fruity (white peach, lemon), and with subtle vanilla notes, the nose is captivating. Well-aged (12 months in barrels), well-structured, and driven by a lovely tart freshness, the palate adds notes of ripe fruit (pineapple, quince) to a full-bodied and stimulating profile. Suitable for aging and pairing with fine dining, it can also be enjoyed young (after aeration).

Rated estate (2027 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

The Vincent Carême estate, then known as Domaine de la Haute Borne, was founded in 1999 by the winemaker of the same name on 2.5 hectares of land he acquired to grow grapes. At the time, the estate featured a 16th-century cave cellar. The estate began its transition to organic farming in 2003 and was certified in 2007. As of 2017, Vincent Carême tends to 17 hectares of vineyards.
