Flavour Profile
Introducing Les Deux Vallées Savennières from a small family property owned by the Socheleau family. Having started as apple growers, they are relatively new to wine, buying Domaine Les Deux Vallées in 2001 with proceeds from selling their apple orchards.
One of the first things they did was to rip out the plantings of Sauvignon and Chardonnay and replant them with Chenin Blanc. Savennières is fine wine territory for Chenin and produces some of the world's finest and most age-worthy examples.
In 2022, Philippe was awarded 'Loire Winemaker of the Year'. Their vineyards lie on two main terroirs (hence the name Les Deux Vallées). The first is between the Loire and the Layon; the second is around the village of Saint Lambert du Latay. Aged on fine lees for six months, this is rich, rounded, yet intensely citrusy. A superb dinner party wine.
