Clos Durandiere Saumur Rouge
Vintage: | 2020 |
---|---|
Description: | Biodynamic/organic. Cabernet Franc. Terroir: This clos is surrounded by the wall of the Chteau de la Durandire, belonging to Etienne's family, and the neighboring forest. The vineyard is among only 20ha in Saumur with a hard Bathonian limestone bedrock from the Jurassic period, as opposed to the more typical tuffeau. The shallow topsoils (30 to 60cm) are composed of clayey sand or sandy loam with iron oxide. The vineyard is early-ripening and well-draining, with limited vigor and active limestone, and Etienne's goal here is to obtain the most ethereal and elegant wine possible. Becky Wasserman |
