Le Bouchet is the name of the lieu-dit where this parcel is on the première côte of Vouvray. The vines average 50 years of age, the parcel is 1.35 acres, and this is vinified and aged in older 400L barrels. It was bottled in June following the harvest. Production averages 800 cases. 

Winery Notes:  On the nose, this Vouvray expresses itself in a style that is both upright and sensual, spicy and delightfully fruity. Very expressive, it releases a procession of spicy and lively notes. A rocky note precedes an eruption of ripe fruits around pear. On the palate, it unfolds prodigious energy that constantly propels it forward. The peppery smokiness from the soils enhances this sensation of movement and dynamism: fine peppers and licorice notes now swirl around a tangy touch of Granny Smith apple. It's a delight!
