Notes
VINEYARD: Comte Leloup du Château de Chasseloir is a special cuvée made from centennial vines at Château de Chasseloir. This site in front of his estate is composed of over 100-year-old vines growing in slate soils. The site is three hectares of vines on a plateau that overlooks the river. The wines are then aged in the only underground cellar within the region. The vines here are some of the most prized in the region of the Sèvre-et-Maine.

VINIFICATION: Grapes are all hand-picked for optimal selection of the berries. Temperature controlled fermentation ocurred in stainless steel. The wine was then aged 10 months on the lees and then at least 2 years in bottle at the winery.
