IGP Val de Loire Chenin Blanc, Rock M Roll "Auguste"

CHÂTEAU DE LA MULONNIÈRE, BUILT AT THE TIME OF NAPOLEON III, WAS ONCE OCCUPIED BY RESIDENTS SAID TO HAVE HAD STRONG CHARACTERS. CHARACTERS SO STRONG IN FACT THAT THEY HAVE NOW INVITED THEMSELVES ON TO OUR LABELS, TAKING A FEW LIBERTIES TO EXPRESS THEIR EXTROVERTED PERSONALITY.

APPELLATION
IGP LOIRE VALLEY.

GRAPES
100% CHENIN BLANC.

SOIL
SANDY SCHIST.

VINIFICATION
SELECTION OF THE BEST GRAPES FOLLOWED BY A SLOW PRESSING TO PRESERVE ALL THE SUBTLETY OF THE CHENIN BLANC. LOW TEMPERATURE FERMENTATION UNTIL THE DESIRED BALANCE OF ACIDITY IS OBTAINED. A FEW MONTHS’ AGING IN STAINLESS STEEL TANKS BEFORE BLENDING THE DIFFERENT VATS FOLLOWED BY THE BOTTLING DURING SPRINGTIME.

WINEMAKER NOTE
ON THE NOSE THE WINE REVEALS BEAUTIFUL ACACIA, SWEET ALMONDS AND CITRUS FRUITS NOTES. ITS CRISPINESS AND FRUITINESS ALONG WITH ITS LENGTH GIVE HIM A UNIQUE AND RICH PROFILE, REINFORCED BY THE NATURAL BITTERNESS OF THE CHENIN GRAPE.

ENJOY
APERITIF TO SHARE WITH FRIENDS, THIS WHITE WINE WILL GO WELL WITH SCALLOPS ON LEEKS, GRILLED FISH, CALF SWEETBREAD WITH CREAM OR EVEN MANY CHEESES (SHEEP AND GOAT CHEESE).
