Winemakers from father to son for three generations. It was the great-grandfather, Albert Denis, the first of the lineage, who settled on the Domaine in 1928. Since 1982, Bruno Denis has been head of the field. He is a perfectionist and passionate about his work. His wife, Patricia, an oenologist by training, is also involved in marketing. The age of the vines (35 years) and the poor and shallow soils (clay-sandy) allow them to produce wines for their preservation. The winery consists of a set of buildings each with a specific role in the different stages of wine production (winery, stainless steel vats, storage cellar, reception room, etc.).
Savoury Touraine Chenonceaux white 2016, a beautiful touch of acidity combined with a pleasant roundness, where are intertwined nuances of fresh fruit (citrus) and honeysuckle. Pleasant Touraine Chenonceaux red 2016, with ample tannins, notes of ripe blackcurrant and currant, it is a structured wine, well fleshy. The Tou- raine rosé Perle de Rosée 2017, has a nice orange hue, strawberry aroma, refreshing.
Excellent Vouvray brut Fines Bulles de Touraine, a harmonious and distinguished cuvée, creamy and very fine foam, fruity and robust at the same time, all in aromas, elegant.
