"Tentation" 2023 is the Saumur blanc "Prestige" from our Domaine certified AB (FR-BIO-01) and High Environmental Value level 3 (HVE3). Selected “Very good wine” in 2026 by Bettane + Desseauve with a score of 91/100 and awarded the Grands Vins de France-Mâcon competition with the Gold medal, it was harvested and carefully sorted by hand. Typical Chenin, it was produced with honesty and precision following a meticulous selection carried out in the Domaine's plot called "Les Garennes". It was aged for 12 months in new French oak barrels carefully chosen for the great finesse of their woody imprint. The color is brilliant, a crystalline yellow with golden reflections. The nose is elegant and expressive, mixing floral notes with aromas of white and yellow fruits. There are notes of tropical fruits, ripe citrus fruits and white currants. Added to this is a hint of menthol coupled with lightly roasted notes. On the palate, the attack is fine and delicious, with a substance that combines freshness and roundness. Aromatic palette enhanced with lemony and lightly buttered toasted nuances. Lingering finish. The 2024 vintage soon on sale, 2 stars in the Hachette Wine Guide 2027, is described as follows: "Aged for almost a year in barrels, this white of great substance displays a good promise of aging. It is distinguished by a frank and intense nose, slightly woody with notes of yellow fruits, vanilla and honey. The palate exudes a beautiful roundness, amplitude and freshness, with an exotic accent. A wine of total balance, rich and bold without lacking freshness. A serious candidate for the table. Apogée 2027 - 2034."
