Domaine Pignier GPS 2023

Blend of White Gamay (the former name of Chardonnay), Poulsard and Savagnin, planted together in the vines, aged in oak barrels for 6 months with no added SO2. A fruity wine.

These vines are “complantées“, meaning planted together, an old wine-growing method whereby a mixture of grape varieties are planted side by side in the same plot.

TERROIR

From the Val de Vallière gorge, on a slope facing the village of Montaigu, southerly exposure. Clayey limestone, blue-black marls with some lias slate.
