Product notes

Domaine de la Charmoise is situated at the highest point between the Loire River to the north and the Cher River to the south. Gamay Noir à Jus Blanc is planted on the estate, covering 35 hectares. Average yields are approximately 50 hectoliters per hectare. The soil is of the "perruche" type, meaning it is composed of flinty clay with varying amounts of sand or gravel, allowing for good drainage.

Production notes

The grapes are harvested entirely by hand with great care, almost exclusively by women. After rigorous sorting, the bunches are placed in baskets. They are then put into vats intact for intracellular fermentation. The juice will thus become wine, fermenting inside each grape.

Tasting notes

Exceptional winemaking techniques have the remarkable advantage of producing a very fruity wine, best enjoyed chilled. Domaine de la Charmoise Gamay offers an explosion of aromas of strawberries, raspberries, blackcurrants, kirsch, coffee, and English candy.
