Chateau Yvonne 2022 Saumur Blanc White Wine Loire Valley

Discover the Essence of Loire Elegance: Chateau Yvonne Saumur Blanc 2022

Experience a defining expression of Chenin Blanc from France’s revered Loire Valley. Crafted by winemaker Mathieu at Chateau Yvonne, this 2022 vintage represents a refined evolution of one of the domaine’s two founding wines. While honoring meticulous vineyard and cellar traditions, Mathieu significantly reduced new oak influence during élevage, allowing the pure character of the grape and its exceptional terroir to shine authentically.

Hailing from the distinct ‘La Côte’ vineyards in Parnay – an area celebrated for its mineral-rich tuffeau limestone soils along the Loire River – this Saumur Blanc offers a captivating introduction beyond the region’s famed Brézé wines. Expect vibrant notes of crisp apple, ripe pear, and quince, beautifully framed by racy acidity and a subtle flinty minerality characteristic of its unique origin.

At 13.5% alcohol, it strikes a perfect balance between richness and freshness. Versatile and food-friendly, it pairs superbly with seafood, poultry, or creamy goat cheeses. This vintage captures the essence of Loire Valley white wines: purity, structure, and remarkable aging potential.

For enthusiasts seeking authentic French Chenin Blanc with minimal oak intervention and profound terroir expression, Chateau Yvonne delivers an unforgettable Saumur experience.
