Domaine Chauveau Coteaux de Giennois Calcaire 2023

Tasting Note

A complex aroma with loads of lemon and grapefruit and then a seashell note too. The palate is rounded but has lovely bright acidity and a long, lemony finish. Ideal with any grilled fish.

Producer

Historically the Chauveau fmaily have owned vineyards since the 19th century but mixed farming had remained dominante until Benoit Chauveau took over both his parents' vineyards in 1995 and his grandparents' vineyards in 1997 to create an exclusively wine-oriented estate. Benoit dedicated himself to the cultivation of the vine and the wine making, whilst his wife, Emmanuelle, managed the administrative and commercial aspects of the business. In 2021, they were joined in the business by their daughter, Lise, specialised in agricultural engineering and oenology.
