🍇 Château Yvonne – Organic Dry Saumur Blanc

AOC Saumur Blanc: The Elegance of Chenin on Tuffeau Terroirs

The Organic Dry Saumur Blanc from Château Yvonne is one of the leading references in the Saumur Blanc appellation. Made from 100% Chenin Blanc, it comes from vines grown organically on clay-limestone terroirs resting on Saumur tuffeau. This cuvée perfectly illustrates the finesse, tension, and depth of great Loire white wines.

The estate, located in Parnay in the heart of Saumur, is renowned for its meticulous work in the vineyard and its low-intervention winemaking that highlights the expression of the terroir. The result is a wine of great precision, simultaneously rich, mineral, and remarkably balanced.
