Notes:
Terroir
A blend of several plots within the same named place
Upper Oxfordian limestone locally known as “caillottes”
Shallow, well-drained soil
The vines are planted at mid-slope at an altitude of 240 to 260 metres
This wine is produced from vineyards in the village of Bué (principally the “Clos du Chêne Marchand”) that are planted uniquely to clay-limestone soils, known as “caillottes” and “griottes” which yield a wine of particularly fine quality and exceptional length. Usually harvested earlier than the other cuvées because of the excellent exposure of the vines to the sun, “Le Chêne” maintains an elegant acidity in support of the ripe fruit of these well-positioned vines.
