In the heart of the Loire Valley, this Savennieres offers an expressive balance of bright fruit and subtle depth. Lively lemon and green apple are complemented by a soft honeyed richness that reflects the wine’s Chenin Blanc roots.

It’s fresh and precise on the palate, with bright acidity that sharpens the fruit and highlights a backbone of minerality. The finish is long and clean, with citrus lingering and a touch of stone, making each sip refreshing and inviting.

Perfect alongside seafood, goat cheese, or fresh salads, this wine is crafted for enjoyment now, yet has the potential to evolve over time, revealing more layers and complexity with age.

More about Chateau d'Epire

Loire's Romanesque rebel. Paul Bizard took over this Savennières legend in 2018 and immediately started organic conversion. The winery occupies a 12th-century chapel. Austere, minerally Chenin Blancs that prove Loire can be as serious as it gets.

Loire Valley Wines

The Loire Valley is France’s greatest source of value for anyone looking for elegant, terroir-driven wines. Our collection celebrates the region’s great diversity, with the mineral-driven whites of Muscadet and Sancerre, the beautiful Chenin Blancs and Cabernet Francs from villages like Vouvray and Chinon, and natural wines from everywhere in the region. Sometimes wonderfully fresh and gulpable, sometimes serious and age-worthy, the prices are always very reasonable.
