Domaine du Facteur
At Frantz Saumon, Chenin Blanc takes many forms: sparkling, dry and straightforward, and more enveloping cuvées depending on the vintage. The work in Montlouis and Vouvray is based on respectful viticulture and gentle pressing, resulting in luminous juices. The estate focuses on clear, uncluttered aromatics combined with a supple texture. The wines often gain verticality with a few months of aging, while retaining precise fruit character. The overall impression is one of rigorous simplicity that defines great handcrafted Chenin Blancs.
