Descrizione

The Saumur Champigny Les Poyeux by Antoine Sanzay is born in the heart of the Loire Valley, a region famous for its limestone and clay soils that impart elegance and finesse to the wines produced. Made exclusively with Cabernet Franc grapes, this red expresses a vibrant and authentic character, the result of careful viticulture and aging in wooden barrels that enhance its structure without overpowering its freshness.

In the glass, it shows a bright ruby color, accompanied by intense and intriguing aromas of ripe red fruits, light notes of spices, and a typical vegetal hint of the grape variety. On the palate, the drink is harmonious, with smooth tannins and a perfect balance between acidity and body. Ideal with dishes based on white meats, roasts, and medium-aged cheeses, this Saumur Champigny is a refined and authentic expression of its territory.

In the following years the estate developed while maintaining a parcel-by-parcel approach and showcasing local terroirs such as Les Poyeux.

Production philosophy

Terroir-driven production: organic farming, minimal intervention in the cellar, use of native yeasts, lees management and measured ageing to express the character of each individual parcel.
