Domaine BOBINET - Les Gruches 2020
Domaine Bobinet is located outside Saumur , in the village of Beaulieu in the Loire Valley. The Saumur terroir is distinguished by the omnipresent tuffeau, the soft, white limestone rock which was used to build the famous castles of the Loire. The estate was formed in 2002 when Sébastien Bobinet took over 1.8 hectares of vines and cellar from his maternal grandparents who had retired 15 years previously. He now works alongside Emeline Calvez . The vineyard is managed organically, without certification.
Les Gruches is composed of Chenin Blanc grown on limestone, from two plots, one of which is over 80 years old with very low yield.
Grape variety: 100% Chenin Blanc
