    Description Saumur Blanc "Terres"

    Estate

    Chevré - Germain - Reau is a historic estate in the Saumurois region known for producing high-quality white wines from the Chenin grape variety. The estate employs traditional methods to authentically express the terroir’s character.

    Vineyard

    Located in the Saumurois wine region, the vineyard benefits from clay-limestone soils and a temperate oceanic climate that allows slow and steady ripening of Chenin grapes, ensuring remarkable aromatic balance.

    Wine

    This 2013 Saumur Chevré - Germain - Reau white wine offers a perfect expression of Chenin with refreshing acidity and a distinct minerality characteristic of the terroir. It is suited to enthusiasts seeking an elegant and precise dry white wine.

    Vintage

    The 2013 vintage, marked by good grape maturity, yields a balanced wine with well-integrated acidity and defined aromas. This year produced a structured wine with good aging potential.

    Vinification & Aging

    The vinification process involves strict temperature control to preserve the Chenin’s freshness and aromatic qualities. Aging takes place in stainless steel tanks to maintain fruit purity and liveliness.

    Occasions

    Aging Potential

    This vintage can be enjoyed now but will gain complexity over the next 5 to 8 years, developing interesting secondary aromas with age.
